Instructions

Given a word, compute the scrabble score for that word.

Letter Values

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
