Function name: crazy_scrabble
Parameters : word (string), current points (int), double word score (boolean)
Returns: int
Description: You are playing scrabble with a friend, and you thought you knew how to
calculate how many points you have, but your friend suddenly starts making up all these
crazy rules. Write a function that helps keep track of how many points you have with
these new rules:
●Each 'k', 'm', 'p', 'x', 'y', and 'z' earns you 7 points.
●'c' and 's' are worth 4 points each.
●Each vowel ('a','e','i','o','u') you causes you to lose 2 points.
●All other letters are worth 1 point.
●Each time a letter is reused in a word, the player loses 1 point.
●If your word is more than 6 letters long, you get a bonus of 3 points.
●If the double word score is True and the point total for the word is positive ( > 0), the player receives double the points for the word.
The function should return the player’s new point total. Assume that the words will not
be empty strings and will only consist of lowercase letters from a to z.
Note:
A player cannot have an overall negative point total. Return 0 if the point total
would be negative after the new word the player has played. For example, if a player
currently has 7 points but would lose 9 points from their new word, the player should
have 0 points now, not -2 points.
Thanks for posting the question, we are glad to help you. Here is the complete function that computes the score of a word based on the given rules. All the rules are taken into consideration and commented out in the method
Here is the code

Question 2: Finding the best Scrabble word with Recursion using java Scrabble is a game in which players construct words from random letters, building on words already played. Each letter has an associated point value and the aim is to collect more points than your opponent. Please see https: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrabble for an overview if you are unfamiliar with the game. You will write a program that allows a user to enter 7 letters (representing the letter tiles they hold), plus...

First, you will need to create the Creature class. Creatures have 2 member variables: a name, and the number of gold coins that they are carrying. Write a constructor, getter functions for each member, and 2 other functions: - void addGoldCoins(int) adds gold coins to the Creature. - void identify() prints the Creature information. The following should run in main: Creature d{"dragon", 50}; d.addGoldCoins(10); d.identify(); // This prints: The dragon is carrying 60 gold coins. Second, you are going to...
