[Python] Readability
Python version of Readability
The Coleman-Liau index of a text is designed to output that (U.S.) grade level that is needed to understand some text
Formula
index = 0.0588 * L - 0.296 * S - 15.8
from cs50 import get_string
import re
def main():
text = get_string("Text: ")
cnt_l = len(re.findall("[a-zA-Z]", text))
cnt_w = len(text.split())
cnt_s = len(re.split('[.]|[?]|[!]', text))
cnt_s -= 1
# get avg of letters per 100 words
L = round((cnt_l * 100) / cnt_w, 2)
# get avg of sentences per 100 words
S = round((cnt_s * 100) / cnt_w, 2)
index = round(0.0588 * L - 0.296 * S - 15.8)
print_grade(index)
def print_grade(index):
if (index < 1):
return print("Before Grade 1")
if (index >= 16):
return print("Grade 16+")
print(f"Grade {index}")
main()
