I need to write a text editor for the iPad, and I need to be able to calculate the user’s words per minute, and I also need to be able to delete the last few words — while the user is typing. Any suggestions? Can I use UITextView for this? I had seen some people also have used HTML and contenteditable…
Any help is appreciated! I apologize in advance for the n00b question. 😛
You could user UITextView’s delegate method:
And change the text property of the textView to delete the last few words. To calculate speed you could setup a NSTimer and divide the number of words in the text property by some length of time.
