Documentation

This small package contains a class to count words in a text. All words are returned lowercase.

Usage

use Apie\CountWords\WordCounter;

var_dump(WordCounter::countFromString('This is the text with many words like the or and'));

This will echo:

array(10) {
  ["this"]=>
  int(1)
  ["is"]=>
  int(1)
  ["the"]=>
  int(2)
  ["text"]=>
  int(1)
  ["with"]=>
  int(1)
  ["many"]=>
  int(1)
  ["words"]=>
  int(1)
  ["like"]=>
  int(1)
  ["or"]=>
  int(1)
  ["and"]=>
  int(1)
}

It also supports reading (large) files as long the indexing does still fit in memory:

use Apie\CountWords\WordCounter;

var_dump(WordCounter::countFromResource(fopen('large_file.txt', 'r')));
