Miscalculation on Test (maybe a one-off occurrence)  #103

Description

Hey - great app. Found your site a while ago and have been using it to stay sharp on typing (for various reasons) ever since.

I'm somewhat of a fast typer. Getting a score above 180+ WPM on the 50-word test is not unusual for me (screenshot below to evidence that)

However, when taking one test, I noticed that it rendered a score of 262 for some reason (with 90% accuracy)

I know that I don't type this fast and I'm fairly certain this isn't humanly possible. I was going to ignore it, but I thought - meh, might as well submit this as an issue since this is an aberration.

Probably Not a Big Deal

  1. I've taken multiple tests on this site for probably a year almost at this point (guessing at least 1k+ tests total), and have never experienced anything like this - so I don't think that this is a problem with the site, code itself or anything of that nature.

  2. I have a few browser add-ons that may have screwed with the scripts or their ability to register the words typed (within a given time frame properly).

My guess is that lag of some sort probably played the biggest role in what I saw today. Again, this project has functioned excellently and tends to be my go-to whenever I want to get my hands "warm" for some work that I need to do later in the day.

Great job with this once again. Just submitting this in case this is indicative of some actual issue in the future & people need a reference to point back to.
