Typing rate

Daniel's post about his typing rate piqued my curiosity so I gave it a go.

YOUR RESULTS ARE:

Number of words typed: 155
Test duration: 3 min
Speed: 51.9 words/min. (259 keystrokes/min.)
Error penalty: 9
Accuracy: 94.2%

It's interesting that of those who post their full results, we're all at around the 94% or 95% accuracy mark.

So don't worry Daniel. Looks like I am down there at the bottom of the league with you.

Cheers

Doug
