Here is what I'm supposed to do: Scrabble Word Finder: Your user will enter the tiles which they currently have. Your program will print all words in the dictionary which can be created by those tiles. Then, it will print the word with the most scrabble points and the point total. Here is my code thus far: def main(): scrabblefinder() def scrabbleFinder(): value_list = {'a': 1, 'b': 3, 'c': 3, 'd': 2, 'e': 1, 'f': 4, 'g': 2, 'h': 4, 'i': 1, 'j': 8, 'k': 5, 'l': 1, 'm': 3, 'n': 1, 'o': 1, 'p': 3, 'q': 10, 'r': 1, 's': 1, 't': 1, 'u': 1, 'v': 4, 'w': 4, 'x': 8, 'y': 4, 'z': 10} string1=str(input("What tiles do you have?: ")) ls1 = list(string1) string2 = open("scrabble_wordlist_finder.txt","r") highest = 0 higheststring = "" points = 0 for line in string2: ls2=list(line) if len(string1)+1>=len(line): #ls2.sort() x=0 for n in ls2: if n >= ls1[x+1]: x+=1 else: break if x+1>=len(ls2): line=line.strip(); word_index = 0 total = 0 points = sum(value_list[char] for char in line) if points > highest: highest = points higheststring = line print(str(line),",",points,"points") print("The highest scoring word is:",higheststring,",",points,"points.") main() However, if I enter the tiles, for example, "qwertyas", it will print the following: we , 5 points wert , 7 points west , 7 points wet , 6 points why , 12 points wiry , 10 points wis , 6 points wist , 7 points wit , 6 points witty , 11 points wiz , 15 points wo , 5 points wort , 7 points wos , 6 points wost , 7 points wot , 6 points wow , 9 points wry , 9 points xi , 9 points xis , 10 points xu , 9 points xyst , 14 points ye , 5 points yes , 6 points yet , 6 points yett , 7 points yew , 9 points you , 6 points yow , 9 points yurt , 7 points zest , 13 points zesty , 17 points The highest scoring word is: zesty , 17 points. Why is it printing tiles that I didn't even enter? Also, why isn't it removing tiles so they can't be used again? Continue reading...
