=head1 NAME

Games::Word - utility functions for writing word games

=head1 VERSION

version 0.06

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Games::Word;
    print "permutation!\n" if is_permutation 'word', 'orwd';
    my $mm_solution = random_string_from "abcdefgh";
    my $mm_guess = <>;
    chomp $mm_guess;
    my $mm_correct_letters = shared_letters $mm_solution, $mm_guess;
    my $mm_correct_positions = shared_letters_by_position $mm_solution,
                                                          $mm_guess;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Games::Word provides several utility functions for writing word games, such as
manipulating permutations of strings, testing for similarity of strings, and
finding strings from a given source of characters.

=over 4

=item random_permutation STRING

Returns a string which is a random permutation of the letters in STRING.

=item is_permutation STRING1, STRING2

Returns true of STRING1 is a permutation of STRING2, and false otherwise.

=item all_permutations STRING

Returns a list containing all permutations of the characters in STRING.

=item shared_letters STRING1 STRING2

Returns a list of the characters that STRING1 and STRING2 have in common,
ignoring their position in the string.

=item shared_letters_by_position STRING1 STRING2

In list context, returns a list that is the length of the larger of STRING1 and
STRING2, which contains the character at that position in both strings if they
are the same, and undef otherwise.

In scalar context, returns the number of characters that are the same in both
value and position between STRING1 and STRING2.

=item random_string_from STRING LENGTH

Uses STRING as an alphabet to generate a random string of length LENGTH.
Characters in STRING may be repeated.

=item is_substring SUBSTRING STRING

Returns true if SUBSTRING consists of only characters from STRING, in order.
For example, 'word' is a substring of 'awobbrcd', but not of 'dcrbbowa' or
'awbbrcd'.

=item all_substrings STRING

Returns a list of all substrings (see
L<is_substring|/"is_substring SUBSTRING STRING">) of STRING.

=item is_subpermutation SUBSTRING STRING

Returns true if SUBSTRING is a subpermutation (like
L<is_substring|/"is_substring SUBSTRING STRING">, but without caring about
order) of STRING, and false otherwise.

=item all_subpermutations STRING

Like L<all_substrings|/"all_substrings STRING">, except using
L<is_subpermutation|/"is_subpermutation SUBSTRING STRING"> instead.
