encoding: Get and set encoding.

Description

Method for textstat objects and classes inheriting from textstat; if object is a character vector, the encoding of the corpus is returned. If called without arguments, the session character set is returned.

Usage

encoding(object)
encoding(object) <- value
# S4 method for missing
encoding(object)
# S4 method for textstat
encoding(object)
# S4 method for bundle
encoding(object)
# S4 method for character
encoding(object)
# S4 method for corpus
encoding(object)
# S4 method for subcorpus
encoding(object)
# S4 method for call
encoding(object)
# S4 method for quosure
encoding(object)
# S4 method for call
encoding(object) <- value
# S4 method for quosure
encoding(object) <- value

Value

A length-one character vector with an encoding.

Arguments

object

A textstat or bundle object (or an object inheriting from these classes), or a length-one character vector specifying a corpus. If missing, the method will return the session character set.

value

Value to be assigned.

Details

encoding() uses l10n_info() and localeToCharset() (in this order) to determine the session encoding. If localeToCharset() returns NA, "UTF-8" is assumed to be the session encoding.

Examples

# Get session charset.
encoding()

# Get encoding of a corpus.
encoding("REUTERS")

# Get encoding of a partition.
r <- partition("REUTERS", places = "kuwait", regex = TRUE)
encoding(r)

# Get encoding of another class inheriting from textstat (count).
cnt <- count("REUTERS", p_attribute = "word")
encoding(cnt)

# Get encoding of objects in a bundle.
pb <- partition_bundle("REUTERS", s_attribute = "id")
encoding(pb)
