 The problem that I am having is writing an algorithm for finding all the
possible words from a given word. For example: python

This sounds a lot like a homework.
We don't give direct help on homeworks but will try to point you
in the right direction. It helps if you tell/show us what you've tried
and where you are stuck.

How do you think it should work?
Can you think of a systematic approach using pen and paper?
Can you program that?
Does it work? What is wrong?

Hint: start with a small word that you can check for correctness.
Also test for things like double letters,
eg see. - is ese the same as ese? (the e's are swapped, honest!...)
