I used the following method to get the unique letters in a word
I used the following method to get the unique letters in a word
REGEX_Replace([Field_1], "(.)(?=.*\1)", "")
The group (.) matches any character, and the lookahead group (?=.*\1) checks for any other proceeding occurrences of that character. This means that the last occurrence of a letter is kept, so the results look a little different (but doesn't affect point calculation).
Word | Letters | Points |
