About the same I think 50 - 60 I was taught to touch type on a Teleprinter when I was in the Army, but the keyboard layout was different. To Type figures you used the shift key. There was no enter key etc etc My fingers use the same home keys as I was taught then, so when I get to type figures and punctuation I have to look at the keyboard, which then slows me down ! But I still enjoy it!

I don't type. I use the index finger of each hand, with help from my thumbs.Sometimes I use other fingers if they are closer to the keys. My Mother told me years ago ( before there were computers in the general public, YES once a long time ago only the goverment and large companies had computers)anyway she suggested I take a typing class in school. I said "Typing is for girls!" I never ever thought for a monment that I would be typing everday at work.

With or without spelling mistakes? Probably quite a few! I remember doing an online test sometime ago, can't remember the results!

i can type about 40 per minute but the big question is can you type without looking at your hands and how many mistakes do you make

No idea! But I know I can type as fast as a person talks so I do dictation that way. (As long as they don't talk a mile a minute, lol!) In my neighborhood I get asked to type out letters and different stuff a lot and I don't bother to write it down first cause it's just easier to type their sentences. I won a prize in high school in a 'type-off' but I'm sure I'm slower than I was back then (age happens!)

I can type at 62 words per minute with an accuracy of 98% when I am doing it all the time. If I am not typing as part of my constant day to day things, then I drop down a bit in accuracy and in wpm.
