Editing Characterization Code

Currently in progress...

== Description ==
The characterization code returns basic, first-order statistics on a given text. These statistics include:
* Unique words
* Unique characters
* Total number of words
* Total number of characters
* Characters that only appear at the start or end of words (Separate code)

== Usage ==
To use the code, download the [https://drive.google.com/a/student.adelaide.edu.au/folderview?id=0B3xk_r8iaE_IUHFDQVA4T3FvblU&usp=sharing 'Characteristics - All Files Within A Folder'] folder and extract the files into your MATLAB folder. Open MATLAB and go to the 'Characteristics - All Files Within A Folder' folder and make that your working folder. Run the 'Driver.m' file. A screen will open asking for a folder, choose the folder that contains the text files to be characterized (NOTE: This folder should ONLY contain files that you want read and characterized). Allow the program to run, this may take a few minutes depending on the amount of data it must process. Once completed tables will be output to a file called 'TestData.txt' which will contain all the characteristic data of your text files.

(OPTIONAL: If time permits, create YouTube video showing the running of the code)

== Testing ==
Testing of this code was completed using a small paragraph of English text. This can be found within the [https://drive.google.com/a/student.adelaide.edu.au/folderview?id=0B3xk_r8iaE_IdHFqN0tkSUVkOVE&usp=sharing 'TestFolder']. The returned results were compared with manually found results to ensure that the code was returning the expected results.

== Results ==
Results of the characterization code on the Voynich Manuscript can be found below:
* [https://drive.google.com/a/student.adelaide.edu.au/folderview?id=0B3xk_r8iaE_IR2I3SG0yVkpQN1k&usp=sharing 'Voynich Results']
Each text file contains the results from each transcriber where the name of the text file '"X" Data' refers to the transcriber code as outlined in the Interlinear Archive.
