Question

Problem Set 6 #3

Answer 1

I don't get why I need get_words_to_points(word_list) when I can just use get_word_score(word, n) to get the word score...Especially since my pick_best_word(hand) works without the points_dict.

So basically why do I need get_words_to_points(word_list) to return points_dict when I can just find the points of a word with my other function? If you want to see how my function to pick the best word is, here, it works

Answer 2

You don't have to make get_words_to_points and i see that you didn't. you don't have to to follow any of the problem set instructions.

did you read pset 6 problem 3?

Answer 3

I kind of wondered same thing but there was a large time gap between when I completed ps6 main and the rest of the problem.

I think it is a lesson in efficiency?

Answer 4

yeah, makes sense thanks! i finished the pset
