Typing accuracy calculator
Enter what you typed and the mistakes you made. Half mistakes (capitals, punctuation, spacing) count as half.
How it is worked out
- Errors = full mistakes + half mistakes ÷ 2. Error % = errors ÷ words typed × 100. Accuracy = 100 − error %.
- Gross speed = key depressions ÷ 5 ÷ minutes; net speed takes the errors off first.
- Each exam sets its own error limit by category: see the rules table, or take a test that scores this for you in exam mode.
