In ScrabbleScore: Calculates Scrabble score for strings

Description

Given a word will produce that word's scrabble score. Unlike many naive implementations this package takes into consideration the distribution of letters in scrabble. So a word like 'zzz' will be scored '10' rather than '30'.

The most useful function is 'sws' which computes the Scrabble word score for a given string. It takes into account the letter distribution so not to count impossible letter combinations, such as 'zzz' (worth 10 rather than 30 due to necessity of blanks)
