mixxedstuff Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Quite commendable, LP. I hang around 75-80 wpm, usually around 90-95% in accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatsilverwyrm Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 This test is exeedingly annoying because if you miss a word or add an extra character between spaces, the entire rest of your test is wrong. However.. 100 wpm 2 words 98% 98 wpm This type of test brings in the question, though.. how do we define typing speed? In sprint-type tests such as these? I think a better test would typing maybe 10 pages and seeing how long it takes you to type them, and make sure to discount any time spans of inactivity > .5 seconds or so.. or maybe do a sprint-type test first to see how long it usually takes you between characters, then discount spans longer than twice that, or something. Also make sure you have different tests for different types of keyboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zibl Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I can type about 200 WPM, no mistakes. But if I use a real language, like English (which is the only one I know), I remember getting fairly high in Keyboarding class (8th grade). I was #1 in the class with about 56 WPM with no mistakes. But I've greatly improved. I could probably pull off a good 80 WPM with I'd say around 90% accuracy. Too lazy to check for sure though :wink: .

insane Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 This topic was bumped from being very old. This is allowed in the case of an interesting, well thought out post - but, I don't think there is much to be said about typing speeds in general.
