I would have been proud of someone using my method to win this one.
The "engine" stays the same, the "test" function changes each time.
And the test function was pretty long for this post.
yes ragknot, you got it right.
and a funny thing about the digits for each letter:
if you line up the letters as for which number they stand(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0), it says "peach blows", which is a type of potatoes :)
These problems usually have two underlying (but often unstated) rules:
-the leading digits can not be 0.
-all letters must represent different numbers from 0 to 9.
In the solution S=0, which is the leading digit for SHEEP, which breaks the first rule.
I'd recommend that "Leading letters/digits may be 0" be added to the problem statement.

Carc?
Where did you get this puzzle? I've never seen one this long?
I think that they are more difficult to create than to solve, if you constrain your self to real words.
