Notes

• A word's appearance in a sentence does not necessarily imply a positive or negative opinion. See Liu (2010).
• The list includes misspelled words. Their presence is intentional, as such misspellings frequently occur in social media content.

Examples

var words = require( 'datasets-liu-positive-opinion-words-en' );

var len = words.length,
	N = 10,
	idx,
	i;

// Select random words from the list...
for ( i = 0; i < N; i++ ) {
	idx = Math.ceil( Math.random()*len ) - 1;
	console.log( words[ idx ] );
}

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,
