Boggler

Generate solutions and play Boggle (in English, French or Finnish)

Added support for Finnish language ("fi")

Getting Started

First, install the package:

library(devtools)
install_github("jtuimala/Boggler")

Next, just use one of Play.Boggle() or Solve.Boggle() functions, specifying the language as argument. That's it!

What to expect

When you use Play.Boggle(), the letters are shuffled and you get a plot looking like this one:

1: ait
+1pt(s) (temps restant: 99 secs)

1: 

At the end, you get your score, as well as the maximum possible score.

To get the list of all possible words, just proceed like this:

> solutions <- Play.Boggle()
...
> head(solutions$solutions)
  word pts
1  ada   1
2  ace   1
3  des   1
4  dec   1
5  est   1
6  sec   1
> tail(solutions$solutions)
       word pts
81   absent   3
82  destine   5
83  dentine   5
84  sentine   5
85  accents   5
86 centaine  11

Or, if you forgot to assign the results to a variable:

> Play.Boggle()
...
> tail(.Last.value$solutions)
       word pts
81   absent   3
82  destine   5
83  dentine   5
84  sentine   5
85  accents   5
86 centaine  11
