Comments on: R for humanists http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/05/14/r-for-humanists/ The Humanities and Technology Camp Sun, 29 Sep 2013 18:00:29 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.12 By: Sherman Dorn http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/05/14/r-for-humanists/#comment-3129 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 01:03:25 +0000 http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/?p=278#comment-3129 I wish I could be at THATCamp Prime this year, but since I can’t, I’ll at least contribute a suggestion: use RStudio (www.rstudio.com/ ) as the integrated development environment. It’s the best I’ve used in my (limited) R experience.

Hopefully the session can branch out from my simple walk-thru.

@Zach: great question. i’ll supply a few trivial sets of texts for us to play with, but it would be fun to have your own as well, even if just a handful of to get practice working on a new set.

I’ve been meaning to jump into R for a while, maybe this will be the spark I need. Should we supply our own text files, or will you have a set to work with?

I’ve been using R for charting data and for making maps. I’d like to learn how you do text mining with R, and perhaps we can talk about R more generally.
