Trying to come up with python anagram function

Question

What I\'m trying to do is if I have a list like:

[\"lime\", \"mile\", \"liem\", \"tag\", \"gat\", \"goat\", \"math\"]

I want to write a functio

Answer 1

The easy way to analyses anagram words is to put them in alphabetic order.So you create a second list with alphabetic ordered words.

['lime', 'mile', 'liem', 'tag', 'gat']

index = 0
b = []
for i in a:
    b.insert(index, ''.join(sorted(i)))
    index = index + 1

['eilm', 'eilm', 'eilm', 'agt', 'agt']

I think you can have more pythonesque code than the one i give you, but i think the important thing for you is to order letters in the word.

Now you can do something to analyse your anagrams
