python3-readtime

Calculates reading time for text based on Medium's read time formula

Description

This library determines the time it takes for an average reader to finish a given piece of text. Using Medium's read time formula, it calculates the reading duration by considering factors such as word count and the number of images present. The default speed is set to 265 words per minute for English text, with adjustments made for texts in other languages like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, which are measured by character count. Image counts also play a role, affecting the overall time calculation to reflect a more accurate reading experience. Ideal for assessing text-based content, this tool accounts for word and image density to estimate how long readers might need to engage with material.
