Overview

Explanation

First, count all typed characters and divide by five to get the number of words typed. To give an example,

  • if you typed 200 characters in 1 minute, your net wpm typing speed would be (200 characters / 5) / 1 min = 40 WPM.

  • If you typed 200 characters in 30 seconds. Your net speed would be (200/5) / 0.5 = 80 WPM.

(number of Characters / 5) / 1 minutes = num WPM
