TimeToRead

Estimates the time to read a string of text. The gem assumes a reading speed of 250 words per minute.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'time_to_read'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install time_to_read

Usage

To use the gem on a string, call time_to_read on it passing through the desired reading speed as an argument.

Example: some_string.read_time_words(250)

will output 2 minutes

Note: Times are purposly fuzzy stating Less than a minute, and only incrementing at minute increments. Please take with a grain of salt :)
