Object


The object of the game is to unscramble five-letter words.  You only get one chance, but there is no time limit.   Try to get a high score!  



Note:  I did my best to include to include only words that have one correct permutation, that is you can only rearrange the letters one way.  There are no proper names.   (Hence words like heart/earth, diver/drive, sleet/steel, input/print, scare/cares, etc. are eliminated).   



If you want to know how the code was put together, please let me know.   



Have fun,


Eddie
