How to fix "no package called textdata" error?

Question

I am trying to run sentiment analysis in R. I have installed tidytext and it is in the correct library with all other packages.

However, when I run

get_sentiments("afinn")

I get the following error:

Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘textdata’

Any suggestions on how to fix?

try `install.packages("textdata", dependencies=TRUE)` – mnm Jul 18 '19 at 13:06 — mnm, Jul 18 '19 at 13:06

This means that the package is missing from your libraries. You need to install it with install.packages("textdata").
