Understanding the Solution

Each solution contains a series of steps to be taken to achieve the optimal 
Quiddler Solitaire score. The 'Words' column shows each word which makes up the
solution in the order they should be played, while the 'Card Words' column show
the specific cards which need to be used to create the solution. Using the 
correct cards to make the specified word is important when duplicate cards 
exist in the game and they are covering other cards, as the cards they are
covering might be needed in later words in order to reach the optimal solution.
The numbers indicating which card to use correspond to the card positions on
the game board below.

                               +-+ +-+ +-+ +-+
                               |0| |1| |2| |3|
                               +-+ +-+ +-+ +-+

                               +-+ +-+ +-+ +-+
                               |4| |5| |6| |7|
                               +-+ +-+ +-+ +-+

The 'Card Moves' column also uses card positions to indicate which cards need
to be moved into which free spaces. Again it is important to move the correct
cards as often the card being uncovered is needed in consecutive words. The 
'Card Moves' column contains pairs of numbers separated by a space. Each pair 
represents a single move, where the first number indicates the card to be moved
and the second number indicates where the card should be placed. It is 
important to note, that card moves are done after the word selection in each 
row. Lastly, the 'Score' column shows the number of points each word is worth.

It is important to note, that this Quiddler solver only generates one of many
possible optimal solutions. Often other optimal solutions are simply the same
solution just with anagrams of the words used instead.
