An implementation of the New Dale-Chall readability formula which strictly follows the specification.
Project description
The new Dale-Chall readability formula
In a nutshell:
pip install new-dale-chall-readability
In [1]: from new_dale_chall_readability import cloze_score, reading_level
In [2]: text = (
...: 'Latin for "friend of the court." It is advice formally offered '
...: 'to the court in a brief filed by an entity interested in, but not '
...: 'a party to, the case.'
...: )
In [3]: cloze_score(text)
Out[3]: 42.46652
In [4]: reading_level(text)
Out[4]: '5-6'
This implementation closely follows the specification, directly from the book's text (Chall & Dale, 1995). The test cases are also directly from the book.
