Your pi score is very good

If you pass me it'll give me some incentive to practice pi again. It's my weakest of the five competitions so a faster score would be nice. Numbers are hard haha

Nice progression since 2019, well done
And you're still young, you can still improve!

But you don't need to multiply by 1.2 the score of Pi.
CPM = characters per minute
WPM = words per minute

I assumed 1 word = 6 characters when I created Typing Zone, because it was a standard in France at this time.
Then I made the site more international.
In English they always assume 1 word = 5 characters (because English words are shorter) but I had to keep the same system for legacy.
So that's why you multiply by 1.2 but only for WPM.
