Applet


Introduction

Inspired by "Odds & Ends", a word game to guess the original word from its scrambled version, showing on Bloomberg Report, this applet let you type in a scrambled word and list all possible combinations. Hum&aumln (you) can pick the correct word from this list. However, words longer than 6 characters are not encouraged to mess with at this time... because this applet can really turn into a denial-of-service applet if you try it!

Future Improvement:

May be a dictionary to filter the list automatically?

Automatically fill in the blanks (for crossword puzzles lovers).

Challenge:

As shown in the NY Times' Ads, some riddle can be descrambled into several different words. Try the following examples: tca, epa. This means multiple answers are possible to the same riddle.
