Size of vocabulary of movies reviews

In this exercise, you will practice different ways to limit the size of the vocabulary using a sample of the movies reviews dataset. The first column is the review, which is of type object and the second column is the label, which is 0 for a negative review and 1 for a positive one.

The three methods that you will use will transform the text column to new numeric columns, capturing the count of a word or a phrase in each review. Each method will ultimately result in building a different number of new features.
