ANA - A New Anagram (game in your terminal)

This project is a JavaScript implementation of an anagram game. It generates a random set of letters and challenges the player to form as many words as possible using those letters. The game keeps track of the player's score and provides a theoretical score based on all possible words that can be formed. The project utilizes file handling to read a word list file and uses various string manipulation techniques to generate permutations of the input word and check if they exist in the word list. The game is played through the command line interface.
