MOJ Digital Code Test Requirements

This is the remote code test we use when filtering through CVs. Below is the task we set them. The rest of this repository is an example solution by @james.

Intro

Thank you for your interest in a developer position at the Ministry of Justice Digital Services team. As part of our recruitment process, we ask that you complete a short code test. You can do this in your own time, there is no time limit. Please submit your solution as a git repository we can access (e.g. on github).

The task

You need to put together a simple web application that can produce anagrams of words from a wordlit.

  • You can find a copy of our wordlist at http://static.abscond.org/wordlist.txt
  • Non-alphanumeric characters should be considered as part of the anagram (e.g. "he's" is not an anagram of "she")
  • The application should be able to respond to a request made every second
  • Assume that the application will be hosted on heroku

Details

The application should be able to receive an HTTP GET request with the requested word as the path. It should return the results as JSON. See the example below:

GET /crepitus
{"crepitus":["cuprites","pictures","piecrust"]}


GET /crepitus,paste,kinship,enlist,boaster,fresher,sinks,knits,sort
{"crepitus":["cuprites","pictures","piecrust"],"paste":["pates","peats","septa","spate","tapes","tepas"],"kinship":["pinkish"],"enlist":["elints","inlets","listen","silent","tinsel"],"boaster":["boaters","borates","rebatos","sorbate"],"fresher":["refresh"],"sinks":["skins"],"knits":["skint","stink","tinks"],"sort":["orts","rots","stor","tors"]}


GET /sdfwehrtgegfg
{"sdfwehrtgegfg":[]}
