Mathematical Modeling In Word Games: Apportionment of Letter Tiles

Authors

Benjamin Dickman

Abstract

In mathematical modeling, the topic of apportionment provides powerful tools for the design of games. In particular, letter frequency based modeling can be used to compute appropriate letter distributions for a variety of word games. This paper will provide possible letter distributions for two different games: Scrabble and Boggle.
