About: GADDAG

An Entity of Type: building, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A GADDAG is a data structure presented by Steven Gordon in 1994, for use in generating moves for Scrabble and other word-generation games where such moves require words that "hook into" existing words. It is often in contrast to move-generation algorithms using a directed acyclic word graph (DAWG) such as the one used by Maven. It is generally twice as fast as the traditional DAWG algorithms, but take about 5 times as much space for regulation Scrabble dictionaries. Quackle, an open-source Scrabble program, uses a GADDAG to generate moves.
