Hello,
I found some time to do some qualitative testing with the language guesser
I contributed some time ago (available in the patch queue :)
I tried with language references for da, de, en, fr, nl, sv. I picked at
random strings of varying length from a reference document in a specific
language and measured the probability to get it right. Here are some
results.
For French
----------
Length:Probability X 10000
30:9954 (means for String length 30, 99.54% chance that it returns French)
25:9926
20:9890
15:9789
10:9426
9:9209
8:9032
7:8852
6:8544
5:8085
4:7585
3:6732
For English
-----------
30:9960
25:9929
20:9848
10:8983
9:8801
8:8557
7:8240
6:7853
5:7356
4:6523
3:5733
For Danish
----------
30:9854
25:9853
20:9813

8:8738
