# Scrabble Score
Given a word, compute the scrabble score for that word.
## Letter Values
You'll need these:
```plain
Letter Value
A, E, I, O, U, L, N, R, S, T 1
D, G 2
B, C, M, P 3
F, H, V, W, Y 4
K 5
J, X 8
Q, Z 10
```
## Examples
"cabbage" should be scored as worth 14 points:
- 3 points for C
- 1 point for A, twice
- 3 points for B, twice
- 2 points for G
- 1 point for E
And to total:
- `3 + 2*1 + 2*3 + 2 + 1`
- = `3 + 2 + 6 + 3`
- = `5 + 9`
- = 14
## Extensions
- You can play a double or a triple letter.

## Setup
Go through the setup instructions for JavaScript to
install the necessary dependencies:

## Making the Test Suite Pass
Execute the tests with:
jasmine <exercise-name>.spec.js
Replace `<exercise-name>` with the name of the current exercise. E.g., to
test the Hello World exercise:
jasmine hello-world.spec.js
In many test suites all but the first test have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can unskip the next one by
changing `xit` to `it`.
