Formule

## How Typing Speed Is Measured Typing speed is measured in words per minute (WPM). Net WPM subtracts errors for a more accurate measure of productive speed. ### Formula **Gross WPM = Total Words / Minutes** **Net WPM = (Total Words - Errors) / Minutes** **Accuracy = (Total Words - Errors) / Total Words x 100%**

Exemple Résolu

You typed 250 words in 5 minutes with 8 errors.

  1. 01Gross WPM = 250 / 5 = 50 WPM
  2. 02Net WPM = (250 - 8) / 5 = 48 WPM
  3. 03Accuracy = 242 / 250 x 100 = 96.8%
