 +A word math puzzle is one where the numbers 0-9 have been replaced with various letters of the alphabet; it is your task to determine what number each letter maps to, and report that to me in the project submission.
  
 +For this sort of problem, you will likely want to take notes; all the various little tests you concoct to prove or disprove some relationship. This may also take a bit longer and seem more overwhelming, but really, it is just longhand math :) Remember to attack the problem in pieces, and not head-on all-at-once.
