Anagram Solver

BEFORE I START: I just want to say a quick thanks to martin and Xand3r, for their help on a part of this in the General Help Forum - cheers guys!

OK, so this was part of a MUCH larger project of mine...but i thought i might as well, share this seriously good finding on the internet that i...well...found. The site being: http://www.f1compiler.com/samples/Anagram123.f1.html

Brief explanation of code from site:

If you give each letter of the alphabet a different PRIME NUMBER, so..

a=2
b=3
c=5
d=7
e=11
..and so on

...and then multiply the letters numerical values in a given word, eg. BAT

B=3
A=2
T=71

BAT=3*2*71=426

This will have the same numerical value as the word, TAB

T=71
A=2
B=3

TAB=71*2*3=426

Therefore, all the program needs to do is find the numerical value of the anagram that the user has input, and find that exact same numerical value in a pre-built dictionary file.

So, this is nothing neat as i've just put pieces of code together that i used, but it works, and it does so beautifully...

on my old school 2.8GHz P4, it calculates all possible words of the anagram input by the user in these time periods:

ANAGRAM LENGTH --- TIME (secs)
2 letters      --- 0.017 
3 letters      --- 0.026
4 letters      --- 0.043
5 letters      --- 0.101
6 letters      --- 0.201
7 letters      --- 0.432
8 letters      --- 1.054
9 letters      --- 2.277
10 letters     --- 6.423
11 letters     --- 19.50

I need to point out this is giving EVERY POSSIBLE word that can be found in the anagram...right down to two letter words, so when searching a 9 letter anagram, it is giving all the words of letter length; 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2.

If you just want to find the exact anagram + the exact anagram with an additional letter to the anagram, this only takes 0.021 secs on my computer.

SO

Here is all the code you need, with a GUI as well, so all you need to do is run it, and bob's your uncle.

MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE DICTIONARY FILES AS WELL

THIS IS THE ANAGRAM SOLVER

OK, so the dictionary files are too big to attach :S

Here is a .zip file, CONTENTS:

Wordlist.txt ;SIZE=2259KB

AnagramSOLVER.au3 ;SIZE=7KB
LibraryBUILDER.au3 ;SIZE=4KB

If you want to download the SOWPODS or TWL06 dictionaries, you can do so here:

http://www.isc.ro/en/commands/lists.html ;You want the whole dictionary not the 2/3/4 letter dictionaries

Although they will have pretty much all the words you would need in a dictionary, i am not sure how up-to-date these are. If you do download one of these dictionaries, make sure to run it in my DICTIONARY BUILDER.

Please tell me what you think - all comments WELCOME!

Looks pretty cool. Thanks.

Is this free to use -err- in another project? I made one like this (without the numeric part). So, it took near a minute to do the work. Your method is much better.

Thanks, although i can't really take any credit for this method as i just stumbled across it on the internet. But yes, feel free to use it as you wish!

WOW! :)

That is a fantastic find and a great translation into AutoIt.

Five stars from me. :(

I cannot believe how fast it is.

Do you know if it would be difficult to modify it to produce a combination of words from a word or short phrase?

i.e. given input something like:

Calamity: It comes back with (among other combinations) = ay calm it

The earthquakes: It comes back with (among other combinations) = That queer shake

Debit card: It comes back with (among other combinations) = Bad credit

Slot machines: It comes back with (among other combinations) = Cash lost in ‘em

School master: It comes back with (among other combinations) = The classroom

Dormitory: It comes back with (among other combinations) = Dirty room

Desperation: It comes back with (among other combinations) = A rope ends it

The Morse code: It comes back with (among other combinations) = Here come dots

and here are some more:

A decimal point: I’m a dot in place

Fir cones: Conifers

The eyes: They see

Conversation: Voices rant on

Election results: Lies – let’s recount

Schoolmaster: The classroom

Listen: Silent

The Country Side: No City Dust Here

Evangelist: Evil’s Agent

Astronomers: No more stars

The eyes: They see

The Cockroach: Cook, Catch Her

Desperation: A Rope Ends It

The Morse Code: Here Come Dots

Slot Machines: Cash Lost in’em

Conversation: Voices Rant On

Funeral: Real Fun

The Hilton: Hint: Hotel

Vacation Times: I’m Not as Active

The Detectives: Detect Thieves

Semolina: Is No Meal

Christmas tree: Search, Set, Trim

Presbyterian: Best In Prayer

Statue of Liberty: Built to Stay Free

Source of the above funny anagrams.

I'm afraid I wouldn't even begin to know where to start to do such a program, but it sure would be fun to be able to such anagrams. :)

Once again Thank you for sharing.

Hi, in my last post I asked...

...

Do you know if it would be difficult to modify it to produce a combination of words from a word or short phrase?

i.e. given input something like:

Calamity: It comes back with (among other combinations) = ay calm it

The earthquakes: It comes back with (among other combinations) = That queer shake

...

Well I guess that was a mistake in my wording, what I really meant was (Due to my brainfreeze) "Is there any way you could modify your code to produce a combination of words from a word or short phrase?" :D

i.e. given input something like:

Calamity: It comes back with (among other combinations) = ay calm it

The earthquakes: It comes back with (among other combinations) = That queer shake

(The rest as per last post.)

I have seen such an app in on-line web page a long time ago, but thought when I saw your app that this would be very useful/FUN to be able to do in AutoIt. ;)

I'm sorry, I know what I am asking is 'almost' rent-a-coder :) but I'm hoping it is an easy modification for you (or one of the other wizards here) to do. :)

I would not even have a clue how to start to make the necessary changes/additions.

If it is way too much to ask then please accept my apologies and thank you once again for sharing.:(B)

You ought to do something with that NumAssign() paragraph. It has to be painfully slow, and would probably be more evident in the Builder program.

Maybe a predefined array like:

Global $Ascii2Prime[123] = [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1, _ ; asc 0-47
                            1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97,101,1,1,1,1,1, _ ; asc 48-95
                            1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97,101] ; asc 96-122

And then:

Func _NumASSIGN($Letter)
    $Output *= $Ascii2Prime[Asc($Letter)]
EndFunc   ;==>_NumASSIGN

would be useful.

It is a real word! It denotes the letter "R". You'll find it in many dictionaries -- including Scrabble dictionaries.

Your question is very interesting -- I hope you find a solution! 🙂 And ... maybe you should start a new thread, to maximize your chances of getting an answer here? 😙
