See the subj. Discovered this after updating my teaching materials. Starting from line

the code in the tutorial should not work.

Error:
! `topfeatures.fcm()` was deprecated in quanteda 4.0 and is now defunct.

What would be the new way to get the top 50 features as in the linked tutorial? I tried Kenneth's topfeatures.fcm from quanteda/quanteda#2141 (the top message), and it works but the method is not sensitive to changes in n parameter. It always returns 10 items for some reason.

Thanks!
