Frequently Asked Questions
What are stop words?
Stop words are common words like 'the', 'and', 'is', 'of' that appear frequently but don't carry much meaning. Excluding them helps focus on the more meaningful words in your text.
Why use case-sensitive mode?
Case-sensitive mode treats 'Word' and 'word' as different. This is useful when analyzing code, proper nouns, or text where capitalization matters. Most text analysis uses case-insensitive mode.
What does the unique ratio mean?
The unique ratio shows what percentage of words are unique (appear only once). A higher ratio indicates more varied vocabulary. Academic writing typically has 40-60% unique words.
How is character frequency calculated?
Character frequency counts each letter (A-Z) and shows its percentage of total letters. Numbers, spaces, and punctuation are counted separately in the breakdown section.
