RE: The Curation and Engagement Leagues 🏆 - STEEM prizes & steem-bounty available! 🎁
I haven't actually counted words, but I have had some that went over 5,000 characters, which would be close. There's one that's around 12,000 characters floating out there somewhere if I remember right. It's on one of Asher's posts where you can request the list. But it's the only one that long. I think the next longest is 6,000-something.
Things like that do pack more punch the less they're used. :)
ha!! 12,000 characters! what is the average length of a word in characters for you, I'm sure it varies for each person?
I have no idea. I'm guessing somewhere in the neighborhood of five or six, though. There are a lot of small words we use throughout a sentence. I think that keeps the character count down, but I really haven't looked to see. I could figure it out, though, since Word keeps track of both.
Okay, looks like for the week, I'm averaging 5.29 characters per word.
that sounds too small for you. lol
Well, you've got 4.85 characters per word in your reply there, so you're not that far behind me. :)
That might be an interesting list to see if Asher could pull that data off the blockchain, to see what the longest characters per word averages were. :)
hahaha! only you would care about that Glen!
