<p>How many different New York Times Spelling Bee puzzles are there? Or more | ||
precisely, how many combinations of seven letters can be used to build Bee-type | ||
puzzles?</p> | ||
<p>It turns out <strong>7,742 different seven letter combinations</strong> can be used to | ||
generate Bee-style puzzles. There are more puzzles themseves based on what | ||
letter is chosen for the middle spot.</p> | ||
<p>The majority of letter choices, about 62%, have just one pangram. That's lower | ||
than I expected, actually. It's not that uncommon to have two or three pangrams, | ||
which happens about about 25% of the time, and nearly four out of ten puzzles | ||
will have more than one pangram. The full output is <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sefk/timesbee/master/timesbee.out">here</a>, the output of this | ||
<a href="https://github.com/sefk/timesbee">program</a>.</p> | ||
<p>Watch out for the combination <code>einprst</code>. If this one ever comes up, good | ||
luck finding all twenty-seven of its pangrams.</p> | ||
<h4>The Bee Puzzle</h4> | ||

<p>A Bee puzzle has seven letters with one "special" letter in the middle. Make as | ||
many words as You can find with at least four letters, using only the letters | ||
given, but it has to use the center letter. Proper nouns aren't allowed. Every | ||
puzzle has at least one <strong>pangram</strong>, a word that uses all letters — this | ||
example's is <em>amphibian</em>. Wikipedia cites <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Longo">Frank Longo</a> as the Bee's creator.</p> | ||
<p><a href="https://nytbee.com/">nytbee.com</a> has more today's puzzle and some interesting stats about these | ||
puzzles in general. They don't seem to be affiliated with the NY Times but that | ||
seem to be OK and is's a nice site.</p> | ||
