Goals

1. Solidify your understanding of classes and objects

Assignment

1. Create a program that takes a word and provides a Scrabble score associated with that word. A lookup hash that associates letters with scores can be found here

Bonus scenarios such as double word or triple letter scores should not be taken into account

Use all available resources - ruby documentation, stack overflow, etc.

Recommended Approach: Create a class called Scrabble that implements a method called score that accepts one word as a parameter and returns the scrabble score associated with that word:

  Scrabble.new.score("ruby")

  # => 9

Methods that you'll probably need:

.split

.each
