-
- Text Analyser will read an ASCII text file and then display various statistics
- about the file.
-
- The statistics such as total letters, syllables etc. should be self-explanatory.
-
- The Flesch index and Fog index give some indication of the readability
- of the text. Generally, long sentences and long words with many syllables
- give a lower Flesch index. The Fog index works in the opposite way to the
- Flesch index, giving a suggestion of years of schooling required to understand
- the text.
-
- The lowest text gives the estimated schooling required to understand the text.
-
- By clicking with the right mouse button, bubble-help for the selected item
- will be shown. This feature requires that BubbleGEM is running.
-
- BubbleGEM can be obtained at the following URL:
