JSTOR_removestopwords

object returned by the function JSTOR_corpusofnouns or any corpus produced by the tm package.

corpus


This function removes stopwords from a corpus (it is a simple wrapper for tm::removeWords). Note that the function JSTOR_corpusofnouns contains this stopword removal function also, but it can be very slow due to the part-of-speech tagging. As a convenience, the stopword removal function is provided separately to enable quick repeats of the stopword removal process as the stopword list is updated and other functions are re-run.  This function uses the stopword list in the tm package. The location of tm's English stopwords list can be found by entering this at the R prompt: paste0(.libPaths()[1], "/tm/stopwords/english.dat")

articles from JSTOR's Data for Research service. Go to
\url{http://dfr.jstor.org/}, make a request for data (specify CSV as outout
format and Word Counts as data type), then once you get a zip file, unzip
it and start with one of the unpack functions and then you're ready to go
with any of the other functions. For more details on installation and
