PS10#4:

Struggling to understand the optimal implementation of the computer player class.

The problem calls for the 'pickBestWord' method to be implemented as part of the Computer Player class. OK.

In order to create the 'pickBestWord' method I need to create the points_dictionary. However, I only want to create the points dictionary once which is confusing me.

Is the best approach to create the points_dictionary as part of the initialization of the computer player?
