The following document should not be disseminated outside the purview of its intended purpose.
Part1) Strings (60 points)
Use the stringr functions for the following:
Initialize the vector of words from Lincoln’s speech with the following code:
file <- “http://people.bu.edu/kalathur/datasets/lincoln.txt”
words <- scan(file, what=character())
a) Detect and show all the words that have a punctuation symbol.
b) Replace all the punctuations in the words dataset with an empty string.
Remove any empty words from this dataset. Convert all the remaining
words to lower case.
Make this the new_words data.
c) What are the top 5 frequent words in the new_words data?
d) Show the frequencies of the word lengths in the new_words data. Plot
the distribution of these frequencies.
e) What are the words in the new_words data with the longest length?
f) Show all the words in the new_words data that start with the letter p.
g) Show all the words in the new_words data that end with the letter r.
h) Show all the words in the new_words data that start with the letter p
and end with the letter r.
In c), you realize that the most spoken words are what are known as
stopwords. In text mining, the stopwords are removed before analysis.
Initialize the common English stopwords as follows:
stopfile <- “http://people.bu.edu/kalathur/datasets/stopwords.txt”
stopwords <- scan(stopfile, what=character())
Remove the stopwords from the new_words data. Use the %in% operator.
Repeat c) and d) for this dataset without the stop words.
Part2) Data Wrangling (40 points)
Use the tidyverse library for the following:
Download the following csv file,
http://people.bu.edu/kalathur…
locally first and use read.csv to load the data into a data frame.
a) Convert the data frame into a tibble and assign it to the variable
usaDailyTemps.
b) What are the maximum temperatures recorded for each year? Show the
values and also the appropriate plot for the results.
c) What are the maximum temperatures recorded for each state? Show the
values and also the appropriate plot for the results.
d) Filter the Boston data from usaDailyTemps and assign it to the variable
bostonDailyTemps.
e) What are the average monthly temperatures for Boston? Show the
values and also the appropriate plot for the results. Use the
bostonDailyTemps.
