twarc limits #26

Closed kristi-sara closed 2 years ago

kristi-sara commented 2 years ago

Amelia and I were wondering...

when we !twarc search --limit 500, we'll get a solid 500 tweets. When we limit it at 3000 or 5000 it'll give us a ball park of 3000 tweets (ex: 3087) or 5089 when I yanked it. When Amelia tried limiting under 100, it gave her 100. Should we add something this in the lesson?

I’ve requested 500 and gotten 523, 506, etc. So I think we remain silent.
