Given a word, compute the scrabble score for that word.
You'll need these:
| Letter | Value |
|---|---|
| A, E, I, O, U, L, N, R, S, T | 1 |
| D, G | 2 |
| B, C, M, P | 3 |
| F, H, V, W, Y | 4 |
| K | 5 |
| J, X | 8 |
| Q, Z | 10 |
Examples "cabbage" should be scored as worth 14 points:
- 3 points for C
- 1 point for A, twice
- 3 points for B, twice
- 2 points for G
- 1 point for E
And to total:
3 + 21 + 23 + 2 + 1
= 3 + 2 + 6 + 3
= 5 + 9
= 14
You can play a double or a triple letter.
You can play a double or a triple word.
