View source: R/mc_clauses.R

mc_clauses counts the number of clause units (bounded by the <##> or <#> GRAID annotation symbols) in a multicastR table.

1	mc_clauses(x, bytext = FALSE, printToConsole = FALSE)

`x`	A `data.frame` in multicastR format. This table minimally requires the `corpus` and `graid` columns with the names of the corpora and the GRAID annotation values, respectively, as well as the `text` column if `bytext` is set to `TRUE`.
`bytext`	Logical. If `FALSE`, calculate the number of clause units for each corpus. If `TRUE`, count for each text separately. `FALSE` by default.
`printToConsole`	Logical. If `TRUE`, prints the table to the console (using `message`). `FALSE` by default.

A data.frame with the corpus, text (if bytext is TRUE), the number of valid clause units in each corpus (nClause), the total number of clause units (nAll), the number of clause units not analyzed (nNC), and the percentage the later make up of the total (pNC).
