          I don't think the wpm calculation is correct. I got 90-something on this test, but another test[^] puts me around 60-70 consistently.

                    Was it sentences or was it (as it looks like from my glance) just random alpha-numeric characters?  If the latter then I'd expect "scores" to drop.

                                Do it a few times and you'll notice that you'll often get some repeated text.  But then again my 122 was very early on when it hadn't yet repeated :~

                                      I'd like to help but I am too lazy to Google it for you.

                                        I wonder if I could beat that with one finger...  Oh well, I suppose I'll cancel the sleeping session planned for tonight :sigh: [edit]http://ed.poore.googlepages.com/typing-single-finger.bmp[^], he he, 38.54 WPM, beaten you with one finger.  I suppose I'd better try getting drunk now[/edit]


                                        As of how to accomplish this I wouldn't have a clue at the moment and I'm too lazy to google it

                                          http://labs.jphantom.com/wpm/[^] Although it's not suited to a programmer's style.  Anybody want to write one?  Or are we all too embarrased by our reliance on Intellisense (when it works:rolleyes:) :) My speed (after a few attempts to get used to the language): 122.11 wpm[^]
