doc_counts

Description

Computes some basic document counts (see the 'Value' section below for details).

The function is vectorized by document, and scores are computed in parallel via OpenMP. You can control the number of threads used with the nthreads parameter.

Usage

doc_counts(s, nthreads = sylcount.nthreads())

Arguments

s	A character vector (vector of strings).
nthreads	Number of threads to use. By default it will use the total number of cores + hyperthreads.

Details

The function is essentially just readability() without the readability scores.

Value

A dataframe containing:

chars	the total numberof characters
wordchars	the number of alphanumeric characters
words	text tokens that are probably English language words
nonwords	text tokens that are probably not English language words
sents	the number of sentences recognized in the text
sylls	the total number of syllables (ignores all non-words)
polys	the total number of "polysyllables", or words with 3+ syllables
