Does everyone mean the same thing by "wpm"? I almost always score over "125 wpm" on Typeracer.com, and there are plenty of people there who score higher than that. So I suspect there is some inconsistency in the counting between that site and the article. (I don't even consider myself especially fast.)
- zokier 8y agoThe article seems to be using average of 6 characters per word ("120 WPM means 12 strokes a second"), which sounds pretty typical to me
- stan_rogers 8y agoFive characters plus a space. It's a long-standing standard measure (it was old old fifty years ago when I were a wee lad).
