# Introduction | ||
|
||
You work for a company that makes an online multiplayer game called Lexiconia. | ||
|
||
To play the game, each player is given 13 letters, which they must rearrange to create words. | ||
Different letters have different point values, since it's easier to create words with some letters than others. | ||
|
||
The game was originally launched in English, but it is very popular, and now the company wants to expand to other languages as well. | ||
|
||
Different languages need to support different point values for letters. | ||
The point values are determined by how often letters are used, compared to other letters in that language. | ||
|
||
For example, the letter 'C' is quite common in English, and is only worth 3 points. | ||
But in Norwegian it's a very rare letter, and is worth 10 points. | ||
|
||
To make it easier to add new languages, your team needs to change the way letters and their point values are stored in the game. |
