Description:
Automatically replaces "misspelled" words in a character vector based on their string distance from a list of words sorted by their frequency in a corpus. The default word list provided in the package comes from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Uses the Jaro-Winkler distance metric for string similarity as implemented in van der Loo (2014) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2014-011>. The word frequency data is derived from Davies (2008-) "The Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA)" <https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/>.
