How it works
Leading and trailing whitespace do not add words. Blank input has zero words, characters and lines. The reading-time assumption is a configurable product convention, not a measured personal reading speed.
Words = whitespace-separated tokens Characters = Unicode code points Reading minutes = ceil(words ÷ 200)
Try the example
The starter inputs above produce:
Words: 12
Change the inputs to match your own situation. The result is an estimate or text transformation, not a substitute for reviewing your source data.
