Text Analyzer
The Text Analyzer is a versatile application designed to streamline the process of analyzing and manipulating text. Developed with React and powered by the flexibility of Tailwind CSS, this app caters to both beginners looking to grasp React fundamentals and seasoned developers seeking an efficient way to prepare for coding challenges.
Functionalities
The heart of the Text Analyzer lies in its ability to provide comprehensive insights into the entered text. Here’s how the app breaks it down:
Character Count : The app accurately tallies the number of characters in the entered text, including spaces and special characters. This functionality is particularly handy when working with character-limited platforms or assessing the length of a piece of content.
Code sample
const Textarea = () => {
let [input, setInput]=useState('');
const characters= input.length;
....
- Word Count: The app intelligently counts the total words in the text, identifying words based on spaces. This feature proves invaluable for authors, editors, and anyone who needs to gauge the wordiness of their content.
Code sample
const Textarea = () => {
let [input, setInput]=useState('');
const words= input.split(/\s+/).filter((word)=>word!=='').length;
...
- Sentence Count: By detecting periods, question marks, and exclamation marks, the app accurately computes the number of sentences in the text. This feature can assist language processors and anyone interested in the textual flow.
code sample
const Textarea = () => {
let [input, setInput]=useState('');
const sentenceCount= input.split(/[?!.]/).filter(sentence=>sentence.trim()!=='').length;
...
- Paragraph Count: · Through the identification of double line breaks, the app efficiently calculates the number of paragraphs within the text. This can be particularly useful for bloggers and content creators managing layout and readability.
Code sample
const Textarea = () => {
let [input, setInput]=useState('');
const paragraphCount= input.split('/n/n').filter(paragraph=>paragraph.trim()!=='').length;
...
Text Conversion
In addition to analysis, the Text Analyzer empowers users to transform their text in various ways:
- Convert to Upper Case: This feature easily converts the entire text to uppercase, which is especially beneficial when you’re looking to standardize the case of your content.
Code sample
const handleUpperCase = () => {
setInput(input.toUpperCase());
};
- Convert to Lower Case: Conversely, the app lets you convert the text to lowercase, useful for maintaining uniformity in case style.
Code sample
const handleLowerCase = () => {
setInput(input.toLowerCase());
};
- Clear Text: If you want to start anew, the app offers a straightforward option to clear the text area.
Code sample
const clear=()=>{
setInput('')
}
- Copy Text: With a simple button click, you can copy the text to your clipboard, simplifying sharing and pasting.
Code sample
const copyText=()=>{
if(input){
navigator.clipboard.writeText(input)
}
}
