NAME
Data::Freq::Node - Represents a node of the result tree constructed by Data::Freq
METHODS
new
Usage:
my $root_node = Data::Freq::Node->new();Constructs a node object in the "frequency tree" in Data::Freq.
add_subnode
Usage:
my $child_node = $parent_node->add_subnode('normalized text');Adds a normalized value and returns the corresponding subnode.
If the normalized text appears for the first time under the parent node, a new node is created. Otherwise, the existing node is returned with its count incremented by 1.
count
Retrieves the count for the normalized text.
value
Retrieves the normalized value.
parent
Retrieves the parent node in the "frequency tree" in Data::Freq.
For the root node, undef is returned.
children
Retrieves a hash ref of the raw counting results under this node, where the key is the normalized text and the value is the corresponding subnode.
unique
Retrieves the number of the child nodes.
max
Calculates the maximum count of the child nodes.
min
Calculates the minimum count of the child nodes.
average
Calculates the average count of the child nodes.
first
Retrieves the first occurrence index of this node under its parent node.
The index is the count of the parent node at the time this child node is created.
last
Retrieves the last occurrence index of this node under its parent node.
The index is the count of the parent node at the last time this child node is added or created.
depth
Retrieves the depth in the "frequency tree" in Data::Freq.
The depth of the root node is 0.
