Written as a self-tutorial, Swordfish is a six-chapter manual on sentence-boundary mechanics. While students learn parts-of-speech along the way, the main goal is simply to teach students how to recognize fragments, comma splices, and fused sentences in order to eliminate them from their writing. Swordfish begins at the basic step of recognizing main verbs, and then provided formulas for finding the elements of five sentence patterns. Students can take up to three standard or advanced cumulative tests, which are graded on a scale from 1-to-10 or 1-to-20 and assigned a percentage score. Instructors can receive a list of the grades.
