Return the first or last part of a dfm

For a dfm object, returns the first or last n documents and first nfeat features.

# S3 method for dfm
head(x, n = 6L, nf = nfeat(x), ...)

# S3 method for dfm
tail(x, n = 6L, nf = nfeat(x), ...)

Arguments

x

a dfm object
n

a single, positive integer. If positive, size for the resulting object: number of first/last documents for the dfm. If negative, all but the n last/first number of documents of x.
nf

the number of features to return, where the resulting object will contain the first ncol features; default is all features
...

additional arguments passed to other functions

Value

A dfm class object corresponding to the subset defined by n and nfeat.
