in thread Challenge: 8 Letters, Most Words

you have often a different and interesting view of looking at the problem.

How many dictionary words contain 7 repeats of the same letter? :)

    BrowserUk,
    You don't need 7 repeats to exhibit the problem:
    aabc aacb aabc aabc abca eefg efge eegf eegf efeg aabcxy eefglm
    Your code produces: a b c e f g m x: 0

    Cheers - L~R
