Speed typing contest

In a speed typing contest contestants compete to attain the highest accurate typing speeds.

[1][2][3][4][5] These contests have been common in North America since the 1930s and were used to test the relative efficiency of typing with the Dvorak and QWERTY keyboard layouts.

[6][7] The 2012 French romantic comedy-drama film Populaire shows the relationship between a speed typist and her trainer.
