Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tool count spaces and punctuation?

By default, the tool focuses specifically on the 26 letters of the alphabet. However, standard character counting metrics (like total spaces or punctuation marks) are often provided in a separate summary.

Is the counting case-sensitive?

Usually, the counter is case-insensitive, meaning it combines the counts for uppercase "A" and lowercase "a" to give you the total frequency of that specific letter.
