I've wondered for a while what my WPM is when writing code. It's slower than plain english text, partly because there's so many more characters in code than in plain english. So something like this lets me see the difference between regular typing tests (e.g. typeracer.com) and coding -- and presumably, which languages are either more familiar to me, or more syntactically sluggish.
