`cores`	Integer specifying number of processor cores to run the function on. Requires the `parallel-package`

A tibble with id, number of words, number of long words, number of sentences, and lix scores.

data("tonDemo")
# Computing LIX for whole data
all <- lix_by_id(tonDemo$id, ton_path = "../talk-of-norway/", cores = detectCores()-2)
summary(all$lix)

# Computing LIX for Labor Party (A)
ap <- lix_by_id(tonDemo$id[which(tonDemo$party_id == "A")], ton_path = "../talk-of-norway/", cores = detectCores()-2)
summary(ap$lix)
