❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How does the tool define a "Word"?
+
A **word** is generally defined as any sequence of characters separated by spaces or punctuation. The counter uses spaces as the primary delimiter. For example, "tool-pulse" is counted as one word, but "tool pulse" is counted as two words.
2. How is the "Character Count" calculated?
+
The **Character Count** includes **every single character** in your text, including letters, numbers, punctuation, and all white spaces (spaces, tabs, and line breaks).
3. What is the method for counting "Sentences"?
+
The tool identifies a **sentence** by looking for terminal punctuation marks followed by a space or end of line. These marks include periods (.), exclamation points (!), and question marks (?). It may slightly miscount in cases of abbreviations (e.g., "Mr. Smith").
4. How are "Paragraphs" counted?
+
A **paragraph** is counted any time the text contains a full line break (a blank line between blocks of text). If you use a single line break to wrap text, it usually won't register as a new paragraph, but two consecutive line breaks will.
5. Is there a limit on the amount of text I can paste?
+
While there's no fixed limit, very large texts (e.g., hundreds of pages) may cause performance slowdowns due to the **real-time calculation** feature. For best speed and experience, we recommend using it for documents under 50,000 words.
