Ever wonder how many alliterations you use in your text? Me either. But if you did I built a little app that scores a text document based on a weird scoring system. The scoring is a bit arbitrary but since there aren’t particularly guidelines who cares.

Here is the app for it. Plug in some things, see their scores!

Some notable tests I ran:

Albert Einstein’s Biography: 43

Fowler’s “What is Physics” article: 48

Every one of my tweets put end to end: 51

The first chapter of “A Tale of Two Cities”: 58

Oompa Loompa song from “Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory”: 76

The first verse from “V for Vendetta” by XV: 153

Scores are exponentially increasing and summed. So two words equals one point, three equals one plus two, four is a total of seven and five words totals 23. Take that and multiply it by one hundred and divide by the total number of words to get the score.
