Methods for tokens_xptr objects
Description
Methods for creating and testing for tokens_xptr
objects, which are
tokens objects containing pointers to memory locations that can be passed
by reference for efficient processing in tokens_*()
functions that modify
them, or for constructing a document-feature matrix without requiring a deep
copy to be passed to dfm()
.
is.tokens_xptr()
tests whether an object is of class
tokens_xtpr
.
as.tokens_xptr()
coerces a tokens
object to an external
pointer-based tokens object, or returns a deep copy of a tokens_xtpr
when
x
is already a tokens_xtpr
object.
Usage
is.tokens_xptr(x)
as.tokens_xptr(x)
## S3 method for class 'tokens'
as.tokens_xptr(x)
## S3 method for class 'tokens_xptr'
as.tokens_xptr(x)
Arguments
x |
a tokens object to convert or a |
Value
is.tokens_xptr()
returns TRUE
if the object is a external
pointer-based tokens object, FALSE
otherwise.
as.tokens_xptr()
returns a (deep copy of a) tokens_xtpr
class
object.
