Inspiration:
A youtube video described the best way to solve wordle, using science, which seemed like a fun project to work on.
What it does
Using a dictionary of acceptable words, and an answer dictionary of possible answers, it finds the "optimal" word at each step by maximizing the information entropy.
How we built it
Programmed in Scala
Challenges we ran into
Debugging, mostly.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Making it work.
What we learned
Working on a team was helpful. By modularizing the code, we were able to split up the tasks between members.
What's next for Wordle Solver
As per suggestions from mentors, a GUI would be cool. Or better yet, a chrome extension.
