When using a custom alphabet, there may be a large ratio of alphabet characters to separator characters. When the ratio is larger than 3.5, the alphabet and separators are adjusted. However, if we use integer arithmetic, we may not do the adjustment when the ratio is > 3.5 but < 4. Use floating point arithmetic to do this comparison. Include a test where the ratio of alphabet characters to separator characters is 3.714.
