sentopics_date(x) <- value

Value

a data.frame with the stored date per document.

Arguments

x

a sentopicmodel created from the LDA(), JST(), rJST() or sentopicmodel() function

value

# dates can be removed or modified by the assignment operator
sentopics_date(lda) <- NULL
sentopics_date(lda) <- docvars(ECB_press_conferences_tokens, ".date")
