In runapp-aus/abscorr: Ready-to-use Australian common structures and classifications and tools for working with them

Convert ANZSCO names and abbreviations into the consistent format used by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

Description

This function enables both exact (default) and fuzzy matching. Under exact matching, if no match is found, NA is returned.

Usage

clean_anzsco(
  x,
  fuzzy_match = FALSE,
  max_dist = 0.4,
  method = "jw",
  silent = FALSE
)

Arguments

x	a (character) vector containing ANZSCO titles. Note that clean_anzsco always returns a character vector. If no match is found, then NA is returned.
fuzzy_match	logical; either TRUE which indicates that approximate/fuzzy string matching should be used, or FALSE (the default) which indicates that only exact matches should be used. If FALSE, then if no match is found, then NA is returned.
max_dist	numeric, sets the maximum acceptable distance between your string and the matched string. Default is 0.4. Only relevant when fuzzy_match is TRUE.
method	the method used for approximate/fuzzy string matching. Default is "jw", the Jaro-Winker distance; see '??stringdist-metrics' for more options. Only relevant when fuzzy_match is TRUE.
silent	a boolean value. If FALSE (the default), the function will warn that NA(s) were returned.

Value

a character vector of cleaned values that have matches in the official format.
