## Summary

R2SYMBOLS package introduced two new functions that allows inclusion of multiple symbols by keyword. Below are further details on how to use these functions

### Include library

    library(r2symbols)

### Use the symKey() function

    # fetch a group of symbols by using keywords
    symKey(keyword = "chess", font.size = 40)

♔♕♖♗♘♙

    # when the keyword doesn't exist
    symKey(keyword = "chf34ess", font.size = 40)

    ## Warning in symKey(keyword = "chf34ess", font.size = 40): No symbols match the
    ## keyword term that was entered

    # when the keyword is not up to 4 characters
    symKey(keyword = "chf", font.size = 40) # retruns error

### Use the symCat() function

    # fetch a group of symbols by using category words
    # categories include: arrows mixed chess check mark symbol animal emoji flag people skull sign star telephone weather zodiac smiley hourglass fraction cards triangle square
    symCat(category = "arrow", font.color="blue", font.size = 20)
