wordle-player

A bot that can play Wordle, written completely in Rust. But the bot is more flexibile than the original game - you can give it a word of any length (and also change the number of turns you allow, depending on how hard you want to make it).

See below for a demo of it in action!

Sources

Currently, the bot uses static text files as its dictionary & to know how frequent letters occur in the English language. Here are the sources of those files:

1. word database comes from: https://github.com/dwyl/english-words/
2. letter frequency comes from: https://www3.nd.edu/~busiforc/handouts/cryptography/letterfrequencies.html

Stats

I'll keep track of the stats for how well it performs on the daily official Wordle puzzle below.
