How do you generate anagrams in alphabetical order in python?

Question

my friend needs to make a program called anagramsearch.py that searches a file for angrams of a given word, printing the results in alphabetical order. any advice on how to go about that?

Answer 1

Can be quite complex. Are there any further rules, e.g. just all possible permutations of a word or does the output have to be some other existing word or phrase?

Sorry just re-read the post and found the answers.

Answer 2

what did you find?

Answer 3

Have a look here https://bitbucket.org/trebsirk/algorithms

Answer 4

Basically you could permutate the word as input and convert the data from the file as dict or list and check if the permutations are in the list, creating a new sorted list (will be alphabetical).

Answer 5

thanks for the tip Marco, confused about the link though

Answer 6

Look into the source codes, there are examples for permutations and anagram testing

Thanks a bunch dude
