Search for keywords in the labels of variables and responses of the survey data

Description

Easy and convenient access to the metadata of the "Centre d'Estudis d'Opinio", the Catalan institution for polling and public opinion. It allows to search for specific terms to obtain the details of the datasets available

Usage

CEOsearch(d, keyword = NULL, where = "variables", translate = FALSE)

d

Microdata retrieved from the CEO using the CEOdata() function. It is a data frame with variable labels.

keyword

The character string defining the word / concept to look for within the microdata.

where

A character vector specifying if the function should look amongst variable labels ("variables", default), or amongst value labels ("values").

Logical. When TRUE, it opens a browser with an automatic translation to English of the variable names and labels using Google Translate. Given the specificity of the terms, only the English translation is provided. Defaults to FALSE.
