How Does the Sentence Counter Work?
The magic behind the Sentence Counter is simple yet effective. It scans your text for specific punctuation marks—like periods (.), exclamation points (!), and question marks (?)—that typically signal the end of a sentence. Each time it finds one of these marks, it counts it as the end of a sentence. Even if your text has multiple punctuation marks in a row (like "Wow!!!"), it smartly groups them as part of the same sentence. Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Step 1: Paste or type your text into the box.
- Step 2: Click "Count Sentences" to see the total number of sentences.
- Step 3: If you want to start fresh, hit "Reset" and try again!
To give you an idea of how it works, here’s a quick example table:
| Text | Number of Sentences |
|---|---|
| Hello! How are you? | 2 |
| This is a test. It works perfectly! | 2 |
| One. Two. Three. | 3 |
