M5 readability exercise in lesson 6 #95

Closed e7dud7e closed 5 years ago

from student Paul S:

In the Readability_Exercises in lesson 6, the formulas are WRONG! I wasted an hour trying to figure out why my results didn't match. In the Flesch–Kincaid Grade formula they reference 'Number of hard words' when it should be 'Number of Syllables'...and vice versa in the Gunning-Fog Grade formula they reference 'Number of Syllables' then it should be 'Number of Hard Words'. Please fix!

Similar point from atom level feedback:

The Fog index should use number of hard words instead of number of syllables. The Flesch index should use number of syllables instead of number of hard words.

"Number of hard words" and "number of syllables" should be swapped between the two formulas
