I don't think this usage of #scan is a good approach, because it will
yield totally wrong results:
irb(main):002:0> input_text = '. : & #'
=> ". : & #"
irb(main):003:0> input_text.strip.scan(/\s+/).size + 1
=> 4
Whereas positive matching sequences of word characters is much closer
to the reality:
irb(main):004:0> input_text.scan(/\w+/).size
=> 0

It's crucial to clarify the definition of "word", I agree.
