R Markdown

This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com.

When you click the Knit button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:

romney <- readtext("romney/*.txt") 
head(romney)
## readtext object consisting of 6 documents and 0 docvars.
## # Description: df[,2] [6 x 2]
##   doc_id                                                       text
