Preface

Text Mining is the process of extracting useful and high-quality information from text by devising patterns and trends. R provides an extensive ecosystem to mine text through its many frameworks and packages.

Our aim in this book is to provide you the information that you will use to develop a practical application from the concepts learned and you will understand how text mining can be leveraged to analyze the massively available data on social media.

We hope you'll get as much from reading this book as we did from writing it.
