From BBR:

Concordance is an alphabetized list of the most frequently occurring words in a book, excluding common words such as "of" and "it."

The Fog Index was developed by Robert Gunning. It indicates the number of years of formal education required to read and understand a passage of text. A score between 7 and 8 is considered ideal, while a score above 12 is considered difficult to read.

The Flesch Index, developed in 1940 by Dr. Rudolph Flesch, is another indicator of reading ease. The score returned is based on a 100 point scale, with 100 being easiest to read. Scores between 90 and 100 are appropriate for 5th and 6th graders, while a college degree is considered necessary to understand text with a score between 0 and 30.

The Flesch-Kincaid Index is a refinement to the Flesch Index that tries to relate the score to a U.S. grade level. For example, text with a Flesch-Kincaid score of 10.1 would be considered suitable for someone with a 10th grade or higher reading level.

They haven't done CODE yet. I'll be interested to see the numbers. I seem to be disgustingly consistent. Fie on all who called my books too complex--look, *6th* graders could read them, for crying out loud.

I write Le Fog Ideal. Mordez moi.
