How the calculation works
Count segments using . ! ? terminators and a final unterminated segment. This punctuation heuristic is not linguistic sentence detection. Abbreviations, decimal punctuation and language-specific endings can be miscounted. Empty text counts as zero. Counts and dimensions use the declared rounding convention; other numbers display up to three decimal places where applicable. Nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. Durations round to the nearest second; nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. File-size output units are decimal. Changing an input label does not convert filled values.
Example
Worked example: Article Text = "One. Two! Three?". Result: 3.
Practical tip
Check the input labels and assumptions against the article sentence task before reusing the number.
