- What it is
- The file in the Monkeytype source code that builds the practice test from the words a typist missed in the previous test, ranked by how often each was missed.
- How much weight it carries
- The project's own code, so it shows how the practice list is built on the date read. It does not show how often people improve after using it; that is not tested in the source.
Facts taken from this source
- Monkeytype's missed-word practice sorts the words you missed by how often you missed them, and keeps only the top of that list.
“sortableMissedWords.sort((a, b) => { return b[1] - a[1]; }); sortableMissedWords = sortableMissedWords.slice(0, limit);” (init function, missed words branch)
