Most organic (time) gap between typing alphabets

[TheDcoder]

Hello

I am trying to make a function which.... Ummm.... I don't know the word, Please run this code and you will get it:

<snip>

Which time gap looks the most organic (Which time gap looks like a human is typing them)?

 

Thanks! TD

 

Edit: I am conducting this research because I just saw a Brain Games on Nat Geo which says (and proves) that The more people take part, The more better result.

I'm dubious.

I can type about 35-40 words per minute, that would be about 170-200 characters per minute using a 5 letter word as an average. I can type approximately 3 +/- characters per second in that time frame. But that's an average amount of typing, some seconds I might only type one character, some I might type 6 depending upon the word.

To make a program type in a human-like fashion, you'd need to vary the typing delay, because practically no one types at a consistent rate.

@James Just choose the one which satisfies you the most

​I tried using random to add/subtract the time gap, it didn't look good

@BrewManHD Here you go:

170 ms time gap looks very similar to my typing speed

TheDcoder,

And just why are you trying to do this?

That's so true, but why?
I think that's because it depends on the distance between keys on keyboard.

If you are going to type "asd", you will be quite fast because 'a', 's' and 'd' are close to each other, but when you want to type 'qit', it will take more time, because of the distance between keys on keyboard.

The other thing to consider, is that we type using 2 hands. The left hand works much better in typing words which the characters on the keyboard are from left to right (Like 'asd').
The right hand works better for right to left words (Like 'poi').

If you try to test, you will see typing 'asd' is much simpler than typing 'dsa' using left hand, and typing 'poi' is much easier than typing 'iop' using right hand.

TheDcoder,

Not a good enough reason to want to simulate human typing - thread locked.
