How to play Monkeytype?

Monkeytype transforms the process of learning to type into an engaging and enjoyable experience. When you begin, you'll be presented with text that you need to type as accurately and quickly as possible. The game measures your typing speed in words per minute (WPM) and provides real-time feedback on your accuracy and speed.

By default, Monkeytype uses the most common 200 words in the English language for its tests. You have the option to switch to a larger set of 1000 words or change the language entirely via the game’s settings.

The game also tracks several types of statistics to help you understand your typing performance:

• WPM (Words Per Minute) - Calculates the total characters in correctly typed words (including spaces), divided by 5 and normalized to 60 seconds.
• Raw WPM - Similar to WPM but includes characters from incorrect words.
• Accuracy (Acc) - The percentage of correctly pressed keys.
• Characters (Char) - Ratio of correct to incorrect characters, calculated at the end of each test.
• Consistency - Measures the variance of your raw WPM, where a value closer to 100% indicates better consistency.

After completing a test, you will see detailed statistics including WPM, raw WPM, accuracy, and character stats. The results also show the length of the test, leaderboard information, and specific test details. Interactive graphs display your WPM and raw WPM over time, noting that the WPM line represents a global average and the raw WPM line reflects momentary values (dropping to 0 if you stop typing).
