speech package
Nicolás Schmidt, Diego Luján, Juan Andrés Moraes
Converts the floor speeches of Uruguayan legislators, extracted from the parliamentary minutes, to tidy data.frame where each observation is the intervention of a single legislator.
# Install speech from CRAN
install.packages("speech")
# The development version from GitHub:
if (!require("remotes")) install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("Nicolas-Schmidt/speech")
speech::speech_build()
speech::speech_build(., compiler = TRUE)
