An R package for managing and analyzing text, created by Kenneth Benoit in collaboration with a team of core contributors: Kohei Watanabe, Paul Nulty, Adam Obeng, Stefan Müller, Haiyan Wang, Ben Lauderdale, and Will Lowe. Supported by the European Research Council grant ERC-2011-StG 283794-QUANTESS.
For more details, see http://docs.quanteda.io and the quanteda vignettes.
The normal way from CRAN, using your R GUI or
install.packages("quanteda")
Or for the latest development version:
# devtools package required to install quanteda from Github
devtools::install_github("quanteda/quanteda")
Because this compiles some C++ source code, you will need a compiler installed. If you are using a Windows platform, this means you will need also to install the Rtools software available from CRAN. If you are using macOS, you will need to to install XCode, available for free from the App Store, or if you prefer a lighter footprint set of tools, just the Xcode command line tools, using the command xcode-select --install
from the Terminal.
