Welcome!
This app will reveal when each kanji is taught depending on its resulting color. See the algorithm section for more details.
As a gentle introduction, copy, paste, and evaluate the following examples:
Algorithm
Short inputs - Average the character complexities.
Long inputs - Take highest complexity that is frequent and substantial.
The scoring is based on perceived difficulty, relevance, and exposure. The complexity number is shown inside the parentheses.
The scoring is based on the grade level each kanji is taught in Japan. The complexity number is shown inside the parentheses.
The scoring is based on the level each kanji appears in the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT). The complexity number is shown inside the parentheses.
The scoring is based on the level each kanji appears in WaniKani. The complexity number is shown inside the parentheses.
