I am working on a project that needs to check the strength of a password based on the existence of an English word in the dictionary. My problem is to know whether there is any Java API for an English dictionary. If not what hints can help me to implement such dictionary ?

Answer 1

If you just need to know if a word exists in English, just get a text file containing all English words and read it in to a HashSet.
