Re: [Air-L] Software that counts words per line of text
Dear Xanat do you have access to SPSS and have you worked with it? Lately SPSS has become more capable handling texts. A procedure listed below should enable you to do the job. Use it with the compute statement to create variables indicating the keywords are present or not. Similar things can be done in R. SPSS manual: CHAR.SUBSTR. CHAR.SUBSTR(strexpr,pos[,length]). String. Returns the substring beginning at character position pos of strexpr. The optional third argument represents the number of characters in the substring. If the optional argument length is omitted, returns the substring beginning at character position pos of strexpr and running to the end of strexpr. For example CHAR.SUBSTR('abcd', 2) returns 'bcd' and CHAR.SUBSTR('abcd', 2, 2) returns 'bc'. (Note: Use the SUBSTR function instead of CHAR.SUBSTR if you want to use the function on the left side of an equals sign to replace a substring.) Hope this gets you on your way Maurice On Fri, Jun 9, 2017 at 7:05 AM, Xanat Meza <kt_designbox@yahoo.com> wrote:
Is there any available software where I can input a list of keywords and a long text composed by several sentences (or paragraphs), and the output gives me the keyword count per sentence/paragraph? Regards, Xanat V. Meza
