Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Fog Index is a tool used to assess the readability of a piece of writing. It takes into account factors such as sentence length and complexity to determine the level of reading difficulty. This can be useful for ensuring that the writing is appropriate for the target audience. It has nothing to do with computing dew point and relative humidity.
