How to Use the Analyzer
This tool provides several metrics to help you understand historical texts.
Analyze Text Tab: Paste any text into the input box and click "Analyze". The tool will calculate general statistics, readability scores, word frequency, and sentiment.
Compare Texts Tab: Paste two different texts into the provided boxes and click "Compare Texts". The tool will show a side-by-side comparison of their key statistics and vocabulary similarity.
Load Sample Text: Use this button to load a pre-written text (an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence) to see how the tool works.
Download as PDF: After running an analysis or comparison, a button will appear allowing you to download a professionally formatted PDF of the results.
Understanding the Metrics
Readability Score (Flesch Reading Ease): A score from 0-100. Higher scores indicate easier to read text. Text with a score of 60-70 is considered plain English.
Word Frequency: A list of the most common words in the text, excluding common "stop words" (like 'the', 'a', 'is'). This helps identify key themes and subjects.
Sentiment Analysis: A basic measure of the text's emotional tone (Positive, Negative, or Neutral) based on the words used.
Vocabulary Similarity (Jaccard Index): In the comparison tab, this measures the overlap in vocabulary between two texts. A score of 1 means identical vocabularies; 0 means no shared words.
