as.matrix.simil coerces an object returned from `textstat_simil()` into a matrix

# S3 method for simil
as.matrix(x, diag = 1, ...)

Arguments

diag

the value to use on the diagonal representing self-similarities

...

unused

Note

Because for the similarity methods implemented in quanteda, the similarity of an object with itself will be 1.0, diag defaults to this value. This differs the default diag = NA in as.matrix.simil in the proxy package.
