Re: Words per minute

Re: Words per minute

Think Danny needs to do another test, got the title of this thread wrong, surely it should have been Minutes per word - well it is in my case

Re: Words per minute

It's not words per minute anyway, it's word units per minute. A unit is five typing strokes.

I only got 56 wpm. No mistakes though. Was too busy reading what I was writing methinks!
