I have recently started learning to use R. I am trying to analyze the tweets consisting of #squidgame. I have finished the authentification and collected the tweets. However, when I try to find the unique screen names tweeting about the topic, I keep getting NULL as the result. That is the same case with the location too.

unique(squid_game$screenName)
unique(squid_game$location)

Just to be sure I tried analysing #netflix and #parisfashionweek and got the same results.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong or what step I am missing?

I would also appreciate it if someone could suggest resources for beginners to self learn R.

Thank you very much for taking the time to assist.

    Hi, could you provide us the squid_game data.frame or list you use ? We just need few elements to understand the structure and values inside.

  • Hi, here is a CSV file of the data frame and I see that the data frame shows screen names. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/184U1JUAQY3GUg2AQHyV4iySo6X9zbY4Y1g1oZZnmkPk/edit?usp=sharing – Renuka Kennedy Oct 08 '21 at 13:50

  • Thank you for the resource. – Renuka Kennedy Oct 08 '21 at 15:06
  • Thanks for the dataset, but how do you import it into R ? I bet the column names are not assigned and thus `data.frame$colname` won't work. Also there is no `location` column in your dataset, do you create one ? – Gowachin Oct 11 '21 at 07:17
  • I extracted the tweets and exported the data frame to CSV format so that I could share the list I was using. – Renuka Kennedy Oct 13 '21 at 14:53
