mahjong

This library can calculate hand cost (han, fu with details, yaku, and scores) for riichi mahjong (Japanese version).

Also calculating of shanten is supported.

The code was validated on tenhou.net phoenix replays in total on 26,148,038 hands.

So, we can say that our hand calculator works the same way that tenhou.net hand calculation.
