An implementation of Mozillas [Frecency algorithm](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/Places/Frecency_algorithm) for [telescope.nvim](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim).
## Frecency: sorting by "frequency" and "recency."
## Frecency: sorting by "frequency" and "recency"
Frecency is a score given to each file loaded into a Neovim buffer.
The score is calculated by combining the timestamps recorded on each load and how recent the timestamps are:
Frecency is a score given to each unique file loaded into a Neovim buffer.
On each load a timestamp is recorded to a database. The score is calculated using the age of each of the timestamps and the amount of times the file has been loaded:
```
recency_score =
timestamp_age = 240 => value = 100 -- past 4 hours
timestamp_age = 1440 => value = 80 -- past day
timestamp_age = 4320 => value = 60 -- past 3 days
timestamp_age = 10080 => value = 40 -- past week
timestamp_age = 43200 => value = 20 -- past month
timestamp_age = 129600 => value = 10 -- past 90 days
score = frequency * recency_score / number_of_timestamps
```
