It seemed logical to me to have the Python entry check each word of the dictionary against the grid constraints. The Julia entry seems to generate all possible conforming strings from the grid characters then checks if they are in the dictionary.<br>

:: Just ran the larger [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dwyl/english-words/master/words.txt dictionary] its 12x the size of the standard dictionary and runs in 15x the time using the Python code. (There is a lot of "cruft" padding out that larger dictionary from the look of the first 100 words). --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 10:18, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
== more words with a different grid ==
 
I was wondering what the largest number of words &nbsp; (when using the suggested dictionary) &nbsp; would be?
 
The 2<sup>nd</sup> REXX example uses what I thought might be one of the better grids, &nbsp; but I only tried a few.
 
The grid that was used is: &nbsp; '''satRELion''', &nbsp; &nbsp; with &nbsp; '''E''' &nbsp; being the center letter in the grid, &nbsp; yielding &nbsp; '''212''' &nbsp; words. &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 14:54, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
