About the Friendship Calculator
The Friendship Calculator is a light-hearted tool designed to spark conversations and bring smiles. It calculates a compatibility percentage based on names and optional modes — such as letter overlap or a playful “shared interests” mode. This calculator is meant for entertainment and to encourage reflection on what makes a friendship strong.
How the Friendship Calculator Works
There are three simple modes:
- Letter-match algorithm: compares letters in both names and scores overlap and balance.
- Shared interests (fun mode): simulates how many interests two friends might share based on name-derived seeds — great for social sharing.
- Random playful mode: generates a fresh fun score for instant surprises.
Behind the scenes the Friendship Calculator converts letters to numeric values and uses a normalization step to return a value between 0% and 100%. The result includes a short, friendly message and practical tips to improve your friendship if you want to boost the score.
