Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 'Total Lines' and 'Non-Empty Lines'?

'Total Lines' includes every single row in your text, including blank ones. 'Non-Empty Lines' counts only the rows that actually contain text characters. This distinction is crucial for code auditing to ignore whitespace.

Does this tool count words accurately?

Yes, our algorithm counts words based on whitespace delimiters (spaces, tabs, newlines). It correctly handles multiple spaces between words to give you a precise count.

Can I upload a file to count lines?

Absolutely. You can upload text files (.txt), code files (.js, .py, .html), logs (.log), or CSVs directly to get an instant report on their contents.

What is the 'Visual Preview' feature?

The Visual Preview shows your text with line numbers displayed on the left side. This helps you visually verify the structure and locate specific lines in your document.

Does it count paragraphs?

Yes, we detect paragraphs by looking for blocks of text separated by one or more empty lines. This is useful for writers analyzing article structure.

Is there a limit on file size?

Since the processing happens in your browser, the limit depends on your device's memory. It can easily handle files with hundreds of thousands of lines instantly.

Can I download the analysis report?

Yes! Click the 'Download Report' button to save a text file containing all the statistics (line counts, word counts, averages) along with a preview of your text.

How is 'Average Line Length' calculated?

We take the total number of characters in the text and divide it by the total number of lines. This gives you an idea of the density of your text or code.

Is my data private?

100% Private. Your text is processed locally in your web browser utilizing JavaScript. It is never uploaded to our servers or stored anywhere.

Does it work with code files?

Yes, it is excellent for code. You can paste snippets or upload files to quickly check LOC (Lines of Code) and find empty whitespace gaps.
