wordle-solver: a nearly-optimal computer player for Wordle

Wordle is an interesting word guessing game. This program plays it very well, taking only 3.51 guesses on average and never more than 5.

  • words.txt - contains every word that Wordle uses as a possible solution, as of Jan 2021.
  • solver.py - solves the game optimally (subject to several constraints)

You probably only want to use player.py: it will use a pre-generated solution stored in solution.json to play the game for you.

If you want to play Wordle more than once a day, you can use game.py to generate endless games.

I also wrote a blog post describing my approach to solving Wordle.
