Function that tries to detect spelling mistakes in a given activity log column
detect_similar_labels( activitylog, column_labels, max_edit_distance = 3, show_NA = FALSE, ignore_capitals = FALSE, filter_condition = NULL )
| activitylog | The activity log |
|---|---|
| column_labels | The name of the column(s) in which to search for spelling mistakes |
| max_edit_distance | The maximum number of insertions, deletions and substitutions that are allowed to be executed in order for two strings to be considered similar. |
| show_NA | A boolean indicating if labels that do not show similarities with others should be shown in the output |
| ignore_capitals | A boolean indicating if capitalization should be included or excluded when calculating the edit distance between two strings |
| filter_condition | Condition that is used to extract a subset of the activity log prior to the application of the function |
tbl_df providing an overview of similar labels for the indicated column
