`WordCounts`¶

Returns an association mapping each word to its number of occurrences.

$ wo 'WordCounts["the cat and the dog"]'
<|the -> 2, dog -> 1, and -> 1, cat -> 1|>

Surrounding punctuation is stripped, so fish, and fish are the same word.

$ wo 'WordCounts["one fish, two fish, red fish"]'
<|fish -> 3, red -> 1, two -> 1, one -> 1|>

A second argument counts word n-grams.

$ wo 'WordCounts["a b a b a", 2]'
<|{b, a} -> 2, {a, b} -> 2|>
