    MiddLab Data Workshops: Introduction to Text Mining in R

    Text mining is the process of transforming unstructured texts of all kinds (literary, scholarly, journalistic, scientific, etc.) into a form where the language of the documents can be analyzed. Using tidy data principles can help make these tasks easier, more efficient, and more interoperable with other tools. Luckily, R has packages that make this process work very well inside the R environment.

    In this lesson, participants will learn:

    * Some basic text mining/analysis concepts
    * How to transform texts (e.g. a novel) into a structured dataset ready to use in R
