This function uses quanteda::kwic() to return a concordance for a search pattern. The function takes as input three datasets and a pattern and returns a data frame with the hits labelled for authorship.
Usage
concordance(
q.data,
k.data,
reference.data,
search,
token.type = "word",
window = 5,
case_insensitive = TRUE
)Arguments
- q.data
A
quantedacorpus object, such as the output ofcreate_corpus().- k.data
A
quantedacorpus object, such as the output ofcreate_corpus().- reference.data
A
quantedacorpus object, such as the output ofcreate_corpus(). This is optional.- search
A string. It can be any sequence of characters and it also accepts the use of * as a wildcard.
- token.type
Choice between "word" (default), which searches for word or punctuation mark tokens, or "character", which instead uses a single character search.
- window
The number of context items to be displayed around the keyword (a
quanteda::kwic()parameter).- case_insensitive
Logical; if TRUE, ignore case (a
quanteda::kwic()parameter).
