What is the rationale for the X-axis only going to 5 ?
In my initial attempt, I tried to extract the position of each individual letter within the words. However, this approach caused issues because words vary in length. As a result, the positions of letters in shorter words were skewed when compared to longer words, which led to inconsistent or misleading results. This discrepancy in word lengths made the letter positions unreliable for analysis.
So I created an algorithm that separated each word into five (equal) parts. This way all the words can be represented.
If the word has 2 letters it's separated in the middle (the word dy becomes d/y) and are counted in 1 and 5.
If the word has 3 letters, the letters are counted respectively in 1, 3, 5.
If the word has 4 letters, (qoty -> q/o/t/y) q is counted in 1, o+t are counted in 2,3,4; and y in 5.
5 is self-explanatory.
If the word has more letters, it's divided into fifths. (te/od/a/ro/dy) and counted respectively.
Yeah, it's not perfect. But I can't come up with better idea how to program it.
I'm open to any solutions, haha!
