Abstract

The changes of the sentence length in the inaugural speeches of US presidents from 1789 to 2017 are studied. The decrease in the sentence length with time from 45 to 14 words was detected. It is established that a distribution of the sentence length obeys the Weibull distribution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
