Scrabble Cheater

• I'd like you to help me cheat at Scrabble. I'd like you to write some code to give me all possible words that can be created given a set of tiles. The maximum number of tiles you can have in Scrabble is seven, so you'll need to find all of the words that can be made out of those tiles.

On most unix systems (including Mac OS X), you can find a word dictionary in "/usr/share/dict/words" - let's assume that all of these words (including "zymogenic"!) are up valid for scrabble. Feel free to use your own custom dictionary, but this will do for this purpose.

Here's sample code that reads in all of the words into an array, removes newlines, and downcases them.

words = File.readlines("/usr/share/dict/words").map(&:chomp).map(&:downcase)
