Wordle Cracker

If you get stuck solving Wordle games and are a bit of a nerd, it could end up like this.

How to modify/use that script

Guess 3 or 4 times. (If you guess fewer times, you will have to add more placeholders and more sampling chunks).
Enter all "grey" characters/letters in the df of stop_ch
Adjust the resampling chunk accordingly. That is, as soon as you solved "green" characters/letters, enter them in the string with the %s placeholders. The %s placeholders represent the unsolved charcaters/letters. At those positions, all possible letters (without the stop_ch characters) are resampled with replacement.

That's it. In the end, you will get a list of a few possible words (currently, including names and places).

That pattern that drove me crazy and why I had to use gentle brute-force approaches:

Wordle 201 5/6

🟨⬛⬛⬛⬛
⬛🟩⬛⬛⬛
⬛🟩🟩⬛⬛
⬛🟩🟩⬛⬛
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Maybe, I'm going to build a shiny app on this—we'll see.

Happy "wordling"!
