I removed the "rough guide" to US grade levels because it was inconsistent and not needed with the table. I also fixed the ages in the table and made first and second grade not be combined because the user who combined them did not provide a reason for doing so. I removed college professor from the table because I'm unsure what age that should correspond to, but if someone does know they can add it in there. |

The '''automated readability index''' ('''ARI''') is a [[readability test]] for [[English language|English]] texts, designed to gauge the understandability of a text. Like the [[Flesch–Kincaid readability test|Flesch–Kincaid]] grade level, [[Gunning fog index]], [[SMOG index]], [[Fry readability formula]], and [[Coleman–Liau index]], it produces an approximate representation of the [[Grade levels#USA and Canada|US grade level]] needed to comprehend the text.
