The frequency of the other top words stayed fairly consistent between the two issues. If you look at raw frequencies instead of relative, war is used over thirteen times as much in the second issue as it in the first, while all of the other words are used less often in the second, usually around two thirds of the amount that they are used in the first. This is because the second issue of ''BLAST'' significantly shorter than the first. |
