In wai-wong-reimagine/mclm: Mastering Corpus Linguistics Methods

Description

Writes to file datasets of the type that are read with read_dataset, etc. In principle, it should also be possible to write such datasets with the function write.table, but in some locales the function write_dataset can prove to be slightly more robust in case the files contain Non-Western language data.

Usage

write_dataset(x,
              file = "",
              sep = "\t",
              file_encoding = "UTF-8")

Arguments

x	the dataset that is to be written to file
file	name of the output file
sep	the field separator that is to be used in the output file.
file_encoding	the encoding that is to be used in the output file.

Value

The function write_dataset (invisibly) returns the value of its first argument, viz. x.

Examples

d <- conc_re('\\w+', 'A very small corpus.', as_text = TRUE)
write_dataset(d, "example_data.tab")
d2 <- read_dataset("example_data.tab")
d2
