how metrics are calculated

wpm (words per minute)net velocity

Standardized typing measure counting 1 word as 5 characters in correctly typed tokens.

wpm = (correct chars / 5) / (seconds / 60)
raw wpmgross speed

Total keystroke throughput including corrected errors, unpenalized backspaces, and typos.

raw = (all chars / 5) / (seconds / 60)
accuracyprecision

Percentage of correctly pressed characters versus total submitted keystrokes.

accuracy = (correct / total typed) × 100%
consistencycadence stability

Coefficient of variation measuring keystroke rhythm stability second-by-second.

consistency = 100% - (stdDev / meanSpeed)
