+# Typing Speed Tester
+
+A simple Python program that measures how fast and accurately you can type a given sentence. 
+
+## Features
+
+- Displays a sentence prompt for the user to type.
+- Records the time taken to type the sentence.
+- Calculates typing accuracy based on how many characters match the prompt.
+- Displays a neat summary including:
+  - Time taken (seconds)
+  - Accuracy (%)
+
+> Optionally, you could extend this to multiple prompts or measure words per minute.
+
+## How to Run
+
+1. Make sure you have Python installed (version 3.x recommended).
+2. Clone or download this repository.
+3. Run the script:
+
+```bash
+python typing_speed_tester.py
