What are the best practices for storing and managing a database of words and phrases along with their corresponding scores for evaluating the aggressiveness of emails in PHP?

To store and manage a database of words and phrases along with their corresponding scores for evaluating the aggressiveness of emails in PHP, it is recommended to use a database table with columns for the word/phrase, its score, and any other relevant information. You can then query this table to look up the score of each word or phrase in an email and calculate an overall aggressiveness score based on the sum of individual scores. 

// Assuming you have a database connection established

// Function to retrieve the score of a word or phrase from the database
function getScore($word) {
    $query = "SELECT score FROM words_table WHERE word = :word";
    $stmt = $pdo->prepare($query);
    $stmt->bindParam(':word', $word);
    $stmt->execute();
    $result = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
    
    return $result['score'] ?? 0; // Return the score if found, or 0 if not found
}

// Example of calculating the aggressiveness score of an email
$email = "This email contains some aggressive words like hate and attack";
$words = explode(" ", $email); // Split the email into words

$totalScore = 0;
foreach ($words as $word) {
    $totalScore += getScore($word); // Get the score of each word and sum them up
}

echo "Aggressiveness score of the email: " . $totalScore;
