That's probably a good start. It shows you how to put elements into a vector, and remove them from the vector.
You want to add each char into a vector, and remove them if they match against the currently tested word. If all are matched then you have a match :)
Loop through words and try to match against each one.

Another solution is to have an embedded loop.
e.g
for (loop through unscrambled words) {
for (loop through scrambled letters) {
check for match
if match then continue;
if not match then break;
}
was there a match?

Ok , thanks , I'll try to write some code in few days , then I'll post with my results.
