Lexical diversity: Moving-Average Type-Token Ratio (MATTR)
This is just a convenient wrapper function for lex.div
.
MATTR(txt, window = 100, char = FALSE, ...)
txt |
An object of class |
window |
An integer value for MATTR, defining how many tokens the moving window should include. |
char |
Logical, defining whether data for plotting characteristic curves should be calculated. |

This function calculates the moving-average type-token ratio (MATTR). In contrast to
lex.div
,
which by default calculates all possible measures and
their progressing characteristics, this function will only calculate the MATTR value.
