FAQ

How is WPM calculated?

Words per minute is calculated by dividing the total number of words you have typed by the elapsed time in minutes. A 'word' is defined as any whitespace-separated token, consistent with standard typing test methodology.

How is accuracy calculated?

Accuracy is the percentage of characters you typed correctly out of the total characters typed. Each character is compared position-by-position against the target text. Mismatched or extra characters count as errors.

What are the difficulty levels?

Easy passages use simple everyday language. Medium passages cover software development topics with moderate vocabulary. Hard passages include technical terminology from distributed systems, cryptography, and computer science.

Can I restart the test with a new passage?

Yes. Click the Restart button or change the difficulty level to get a new random passage. The timer and all stats will reset automatically.

Is my typing data stored or sent anywhere?

No. The typing speed test runs entirely in your browser. No keystrokes, results, or personal data are ever sent to a server. You can use this tool completely offline once the page has loaded.

What is a good typing speed?

The average typist reaches about 40 WPM. Professional typists typically achieve 65-75 WPM. Software developers often type between 50-80 WPM. Speeds above 100 WPM are considered exceptional.
