Determine a string's Scrabble score and validity

24

2

Your task is to determine if a given string is of proper length and can be represented with Scrabble tiles and, if so, output the sum of each letter's score.

If you don't know how to play Scrabble:, you have 100 tiles with various letters A–Z printed on them, as well as two wildcards that can represent any letter. Each letter has a certain number of points, and each tile (but not necessarily word) can only be used once. When a word is played, the point value of each tile used is added up, which becomes the score. As there are a limited number of letters available, a word can only have a certain letter as many times as that letter has tiles + any unused wildcards. The Scrabble board is 15×15 cells, so the word must be between 2 and 15 characters long.

For a list of the quantity and score of each letter in the English version, see below or http://boardgames.about.com/od/scrabble/a/tile_distribute.htm (archive).

Letter  Qty  Points        Letter  Qty  Points
-------------------        -------------------
A       9    1             O       8    1
B       2    3             P       2    3
C       2    3             Q       1    10
D       4    2             R       6    1
E       12   1             S       4    1
F       2    4             T       6    1
G       3    2             U       4    1
H       2    4             V       2    4
I       9    1             W       2    4
J       1    8             X       1    8
K       1    5             Y       2    4
L       4    1             Z       1    10
M       2    3             [wild]  2    0
N       6    1

Further rules

  • The program shall take a single string of input from STDIN or the like.
  • The input will always contain only uppercase letters.
  • If the string contains more copies of a letter than there are unused wildcards or tiles for that letter OR the string's length is not between 2 and 15 inclusive, the program should output Invalid.
  • Otherwise, the score should be added up with using data from the chart above and output.
  • Do not use wildcards unless necessary.
  • Do not worry about bonuses such as double word scores or whether the string is a real word.
  • The program shall output the result through STDOUT or the like.
  • Loopholes that are forbidden by default are not allowed.
  • Using an external source such as a website, as well as any libraries, APIs, functions, or the like that calculate Scrabble scores or proper quantities are not alllowed.
  • This is , so fewest bytes wins.

Are answers specifically required to output "Invalid", or may we choose any behavior as long as it is clearly not a score? For example, -1? – Kamil Drakari – 2017-08-15T15:36:09.733

@KamilDrakari It must say exactly Invalid. – NinjaBearMonkey – 2017-08-22T01:52:37.353

5Might want to add a test case for a valid word which uses wild cards (eg. JAZZ = 19, not 29) – Alconja – 2014-08-05T00:41:14.580

2You know, this challenge would be so much more evil if it involved a language whose Scrabble tiles cannot be represented with a single character, like Spanish, Basque, Hungarian, Tuvan or Welsh. – user0721090601 – 2014-08-10T21:26:55.203

Does this work with -M5.010 (penalty of 0 because it specifies a version of the language to use) rather than -e (penalty of 1)? You might be able to save a byte in the arguments. – None – 2016-11-22T07:31:18.550

1you can squeeze at least 20 bytes out of those arrays with some creative manipulation – Sparr – 2014-08-05T02:23:10.250

1Gah, always one step ahead of me. :) Have an upvote. – Alconja – 2014-08-05T22:44:02.630

This has been interesting, our scores have been so close all the way. +1. – Level River St – 2014-08-13T09:59:22.653

13

C, Rev 2, 151 145 138

Inspired by the 159-byte code in @bebe's comment, I squeezed another 8 14 21 characters out:

4 bytes saved by rearranging the length counter i. This is initialised to 1 (assuming the program takes no arguments) then multiplied by 4 every time a letter is read. It overflows to zero when the word length is greater than 15, so to check if the word length is bad, we simply check if i<5 (I put i<9 so it will still give invalid for one-letter words if the user accidentally intialises i to 2 by putting a single argument on the command line.)

4 bytes saved by changing the loop condition test to a simple &31. This requires that the word is terminated with a space (ASCII 32) or a null character (ASCII 0.) Normally keyboard input is terminated by a newline (ASCII 10) so the program's a bit inconvenient to use, because you have to type the space then press return as well to get the computer to read the buffer. For newline-terminated strings, I could match but not beat the way bebe does it.

6 13 bytes saved by changing the encoding to -(number of tiles of each letter)-(score for that letter-1)*13. This now requires a range from -4 for L,S,U to -118 for Q,Z. The reason for using negative numbers is to avoid the unprintable ASCII range 0 to 31. Instead the range used is the two's complement of the negative numbers 256-4=252 to 256-118=138. These are printable, extended ASCII characters. There are issues with copying and pasting these in Unicode (the way it simplifies back to ASCII depends on the code page installed which can lead to unpredictable results) so I have included the correct ASCII codes in the program comment.

The advantage of this encoding is the elimination of the variable r as the number of tiles is always reduced by 1 (as it is stored as a negative number, we do t[x]++. Additionally, the postfix operator means we can perform this increment at the same time as adding the score to s.

//char t[]={32,247,228,228,239,244,215,240,215,247,164,203,252,228,250,248,228,138,250,252,250,252,215,215,164,215,138,0};
b,s;
main(i,x){
  for(char t[]=" ÷ääïô×ð×÷¤ËüäúøäŠúüúü×פ׊";x=getchar()&31;i*=4)
    t[x]%13?
      s-=t[x]++/13-1:
      b++;
  printf(i<9|b>2?"Invalid":"%d",s);
} 

C,184 Rev 1 173 (or 172 with compiler option)

I'm using GCC, and with the compiler option -std=c99 it will allow me to move char t[]="...." into the initialization of the for loop for a saving of one additional semicolon. For readability, I have shown the program without this change, and with whitespace left in.

#define T t[x[1][i]-65]
i,b,s;
main(int r,char**x){
  char t[]="Z>>QxS=SZW6(><P>m<(<(SSWSm";
  for(;x[1][i];i++)
    T/10?
      s+=r=T%10+1,T-=r*10:
      b++;
  printf(i<2|i>15|b>2?"Invalid":"%d",s);
}

The trick is in the datatable. For each letter an ASCII code of the form (total score of tiles for that letter)*10+(score of one tile-1) is stored in the table t[]. At runtime, these total scores are reduced as tiles are used up.

The total score of all the tiles for each letter ranges from 12 for E down to 4 for L,S,U. This form of encoding enables only printable ASCII characters to be used (ASCII 120,x for E down to ASCII 40,( for L,S,U.) Using the number of tiles would need a range from 120 down to 10, which is why I avoided it.

Thanks to a #define macro, a single symbol T is used in the main program to retrieve the letter index ifrom the first commandline argument, subtract ASCII A=65 from it to give an index ,and look it up in the table T: t[x[1][i]-65].

The for loop is used more like a while loop: the loop ends when a zero byte (string terminator) is encountered in the input string.

If the tiles of that letter are not exhausted (T/10 is nonzero) s is incremented by the tile score T%10+1 to keep a total score. At the same time the tile score is stored in r, so that the value in the able represented by T can be decremented by r*10 to indicate that one tile has been used. If the tiles are exhausted, the wildcard/blank counter b is incremented.

The printf statement is fairly self-explanatory. if the wordlength is out of bounds or the blank count is too high, print Invalid otherwise print the score s.

Since it's now another day, you can save one character by replacing r+=(r==7)3 with r+=r-7?0:3. Also you don't need the brackets round T-=r9,s+=r. – Alchymist – 2014-08-07T07:46:00.600

@Alchymist Thanks for the tip about the brackets, I always forget there's no issues with operator precedence between ? and :. Your other point is superseded, as I have completely changed the encoding so there's no need for any special handling of Q and Z. Now down to 173/172 with your help. – Level River St – 2014-08-07T20:09:30.967

1with getchar() it's 159: l,w,f;main(t,i){for(char b[]="Z>>QxS=SZW6(><P>m<(<(SSWSm";(i=getchar()-65)>=0;l++)b[i]/10?f+=t=b[i]%10+1,b[i]-=t*10:w++;printf(l<2|l>15|w>2?"Invalid":"%d",f);} although I still don't get why char*foo=<string> crashes. it could save 2 chars. – bebe – 2014-08-08T16:04:06.647

1@bebe char*foo="string" is a string literal, and its contents are not allowed to be modified. On the other hand, char foo[]="string" creates an array of chars initialized to string\0, which may then be modified. – es1024 – 2014-08-09T12:10:15.517

@bebe cool, I missed the idea of using getchar(). I have used your improvements to the code (with my variable names for consistency with the rest of my answer), plus an improvement to the wordlength validity check, and a cheeky improvement to the loop condition test (I tried shortening yours but could not do so with the same functionality.) I also tried getche() and getch() but my compiler (gcc on cygwin) would not link them automatically. – Level River St – 2014-08-10T01:18:25.220

You can remove a lot of spaces and in Haskell `['A', 'B', 'C'] == "ABC". Also you can use only one space for each level of indent. And you can use shorter names. There is a lot for golfing. – Ray – 2014-08-06T17:08:10.437

@Ray Have done that, I am new to Haskell, is there a way to represent lists of Ints more concisely than [1,2,3]? – Tuomas Laakkonen – 2014-08-06T17:25:17.020

"ABCDEFG" can be written as ['A'..'G'], [1,2,3] can be written as [1..3] – Ray – 2014-08-06T17:56:48.730

How do you obtain your byte count? wc gives me over 500 characters for your code. – TheSpanishInquisition – 2014-08-07T18:37:55.843

@TheSpanishInquisition Just got a update for my st3 word count extension, the author had swapped the two counts accidentally, edited to 538 – Tuomas Laakkonen – 2014-08-08T02:18:54.430

Python 2.7 - 263

I couldn't come anywhere close to DLosc's answer, but this treats each letter as a 'bag' that you pull from, until its empty, then you pull blanks, and when that is empty it errors.

S=input().lower()
X={chr(97+i):[int(y)+1]*(77-ord(x))for i,(x,y)in enumerate(zip('DKKIAKJKDLLIKGEKLGIGIKKLKL','02210313074020029000033739'))}
B=[0,0]
try:
 if len(S)>15:1/0
 print sum(map(lambda x:X[x].pop()if len(X[x])>0 else B.pop(),S))
except:
 print "invalid"

1This is a neat approach! You need raw_input if it's Python2 (one thing I like about Python3). The input is guaranteed uppercase, so remove .lower() and change 97+i to 65+i. Input less than 2 characters also needs to be invalid. You can raise the zero-division error without an if statement: divide your total score by (1<len(S)<16). A couple other tweaks like putting the prints on the same line as the block headers and deleting the space before "Invalid" brings it down to 250 by my count. :) – DLosc – 2014-08-06T20:29:02.940

Haskell, 290 283

As far down as I could make it for now:

import Data.List
t="CdC8d::Od;D;d41N:dd:6dNdN;;4;6"
s w@(_:_:_)=let d=concat(zipWith(replicate.(`div`11).f 33)t("AEIO"++['A'..]))\\w;y=drop 15w in if length(d++w++y++y++y)>100 then s""else show$187-(sum$map((`mod`11).f 0.(t!!).f 61)d)
s _="Invalid"
f n=(-n+).fromEnum
main=interact s

This code abides by the rules very strictly, so make sure you don't pass it any extra characters (such as end-of-line). Use like this: echo -n "JAZZ" | runghc scrabble.hs.

Explanation

The pattern (_:_:_) makes sure that only strings of at least two characters are considered, everything else results in "Invalid" (fallback pattern _). The table of tiles is encoded as 11*nTiles+value converted to ASCII with an offset that allows the lookup modulo 11 to work, where the letters AEIO are duplicated because they occur more than 6 times each. The pool of tiles is then created using replicate, from which the characters in the word are removed as they occur (list difference, \\). The pool contains 98 tiles, so if the total length of the word and the remaining part of the pool is larger then 100, then we have used too many wildcards. Also, the word minus the first 15 letters is added three times to the length computation so any word longer than 15 letters automatically appears to use up three wildcards and therefore is invalid. Scoring is done on the remaining pool, which initially had 187 points, which we simply subtract from. Note the f 61 rather than f 65, 65 being the ASCII number of 'A', because of the duplicate "AEIO" at the beginning of the pool. The rest is just boilerplate.

Python3 - 197

s,i,c,r=input(),0x1a24182424416141611a2381612341151891243224c142232391,[],[]; p=len(s)
for w in s:e=8*ord(w)-520;c+=[s.count(w)<=i>>e+4&15];r+=[i>>e&15]
print(['Invalid',sum(r)][all([p>2,p<15]+c)])

Let's put the bignums to use :D (It doesn't handle wildcards currently, I've skipped reading that rule entirely, damn)

Ruby - 195

b=2
i=s=0
w=$*[0]
(?A..?Z).map{|l|n=w.count(l);q='9224c232911426821646422121'[i].to_i(16);b-=[0,n-q].max;s+=[n,q].min*'1332142418513113a11114484a'[i].to_i(16);i+=1}
p(-b<1&&w.size<16?s:'Invalid')

I'm assuming the output of "Invalid" is fine, if not I would need to do $><<(-b<1&&w.size<16?s:'Invalid') which would bump it up to 198


Clojure - 325

I haven't done clojure in a while so I'm sure there are several ways to improve my solution .ie the qty and pts lists

(let[w(first *command-line-args*)o(map #(count(filter #{%}(seq w)))(map char(range 65 91)))i(apply +(filter neg?(map #(- % %2)'(9 2 2 4 12 2 3 2 9 1 1 4 2 6 8 2 1 6 4 6 4 2 2 1 2 1) o)))](println(if(or(> -2 i)(not(<= 2(count w)15)))"Invalid"(apply +(map #(* % %2)o'(1 3 3 2 1 4 2 4 1 8 5 1 3 1 1 3 10 1 1 1 1 4 4 8 4 10))))))

Some what Un-golfed

(let [word    (first *command-line-args*)
      letters (map char(range 65 91))
      occ     (map #(count (filter #{%} (seq word))) letters)
      invalid (apply + (filter neg? (map #(- % %2)
                '(9 2 2 4 12 2 3 2 9 1 1 4 2 6 8 2 1 6 4 6 4 2 2 1 2 1)
                occ)))
      score   (apply + (map #(* % %2) occ '(1 3 3 2 1 4 2 4 1 8 5 1 3 1 1 3 10 1 1 1 1 4 4 8 4 10)))]
    (println
      (if (or (> -2 invalid)
              (not (<= 2 (count word) 15)))
        "Invalid"
        score)))

ES6: 184 (non-strict)

w is assumed to already contain the word. r is the output string.

i=0,o=[..."291232342c124322491181541236181231a61416141242418241a"].map(c=>parseInt(c,16)),r=!w[16]&&w[2]&&[...w].every(c=>o[c=c.charCodeAt()*2-129]-->0?i+=o[c+1]:o[0]--)?i+"":"Invalid"

Here's it explained and a little less golfed:

// The sum.
i = 0,

// The data for the letters. It's encoded similar to the Ruby version, with
// the first being the wildcard holder. The rest hold in hex form the
// following: first = quantity left, second = value.
// The .map(c => parseInt(c, 16) simply parses all the hex characters.
o = [..."291232342c124322491181541236181231a61416141242418241a"]
  .map(c => parseInt(c, 16)),

// The result, `r`.
r = !w[16] || // If there is a 16th character in the word or no 2nd character,
    w[2] &&   // then the next section isn't evaluated. It immediately equates
              // to true, thus returning "Invalid".
   [...w] // Convert the string into an array of characters (ES6 equivalent to
          // `.split('')`
    .every(c => // This loop terminates when the callback returns a falsy
                // value.
      // Gets the ASCII value, subtracts 65, doubles it (the lookup table is
      // in pairs within one array), and decrements the counter at that entry.
      // The lookup table also doubles as a data holder.
      o[c = c.charCodeAt() * 2 - 129]--
        > 0 ?  // Test if there is something to take away. This must return
               // false at 0 and -1 so wildcards can be taken.
        i += o[c+1] : // If there was something to take away, then add the
                      // letter value to the sum.
        o[0]--) // Otherwise, take a wildcard. If this is already at 0, then
                // it returns falsy.
      ? "Invalid" : i + "" // This is where the text is returned.

Dart - 201

main(a,{x:0xa14281424214161416a132181632145181194223421c24323219,i,r:0,m,s:2}){if((m=a[0].length)>1&&m<16)for(i in a[s=0].codeUnits)x>>(m=i*8-520)&15>0?r+=(x-=1<<m)>>m+4&15:++s;print(s<2?r:"Invalid");}

This requires bignums, so it won't compile to JavaScript.
With more whitespace:

main(a,{x:0xa14281424214161416a132181632145181194223421c24323219,i,r:0,m,s:3}){
  if((m=a[0].length)>1&&m<16)
    for(i in a[s=0].codeUnits)
      x>>(m=i*8-520)&15>0
      ? r+=(x-=1<<m)>>m+4&15
      : ++s;
  print(s<3?r:"Invalid");
}

Yay! beating JS!

echo$f|$i<3|$i>16?Invalid:$s;                   // output

I´m so glad there is no letter score larger than 10.
