Can you code an outline of the functions, guide me in the right direction on how to edit and code in c++ to allow user to find words in the grid that are touching horizontally, vertically, and diagonally adjacent. I have the grid coded already. Instead of coding can someone explain to me how to code this.

For example, the board:

Q W E R T

A S D F G

Z X C V B

Y U A O P

G H J K L

contains the magic words WAS, WAXY, JOB.

x; y; grid [] []; z; j; { alphabet[] = { , , , , , , ,, , , , , , ,, , , , , , ,, , , , }; (); (, &x, &y); (z = ; z < x; z++) { (j=; j < y; j++){grid [z] [j] = alphabet[rand() % ];}} (z = ; z < x; z++) { (j=; j < y; j++){ (, grid [z] [j]);} ();}}
