Technical Details

Database Schema

-- Test results
CREATE TABLE typing_results (
    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
    wpm REAL,
    accuracy REAL,
    difficulty TEXT,
    text_length INTEGER,
    errors INTEGER,
    created_at TEXT
);

-- Personal bests per difficulty CREATE TABLE personal_bests ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, difficulty TEXT UNIQUE, best_wpm REAL, best_accuracy REAL, achieved_at TEXT );

WPM Calculation

Words Per Minute is calculated as:

WPM = (words typed) / (elapsed time in minutes)

Where "words typed" is the number of space-separated words in the user's input.

Accuracy Calculation

Accuracy = (correct characters / total characters typed) × 100
