  force_max = 0,

)

Arguments

tiles

Character. The letters you wish to consider.

free

Integer. How many free blank tiles you have?

force_start, force_end

Character. Force words to start or end with a pattern of letters and position. Examples: "S" or "SO" or "__S_O"... If the string contains tiles that were not specified in tiles, they will automatically be included.

force_str

Character vector. Force words to contain strings. If the string contains tiles that were not specified in tiles, they will automatically be included.

force_n, force_max

Integer. Force words to be n or max n characters long. Leave 0 to ignore parameter.

scores, language

Character. Any of "en","es","de","fr". If scores is not any of those languages, must be a data.frame that contains two columns: "tiles" with every letter of the alphabet and "scores" for each letter's score. If you wish to overwrite or complement this dictionaries other words you can set to "none" and/or use the words parameter. You might also want to set this parameter globally with options("lares.lang" = "en") and forget about it!

words

Character vector. Use if you wish to manually add words.

quiet

Boolean. Do not print words as they are being searched.
