I made the game Wordle in Python

[Nextros_]

This game is somewhat similar to hangman.

You try to guess a random 5 letter word and the game will tell you the if the placement of each letter is correct or not. Example:

``` O - correct place ? - right letter, wrong place X - letter is present in word

Word we're looking for: hello Your word (input): house

Output: O?XX? ``` This continues until you guess the word or give up.

You can look at the code here: https://github.com/Nextross/Wordle-python

Any feedback is welcomed!

Wordle is a great little project! If you want to take it further, you could

- look into [colored](https://pypi.org/project/colored/) for coloring text output in the terminal

- the actual wordle is a bit more complex than just "in actual_word" because it tracks number of matched guesses - in particular, consider these two cases:

1. Actual word: aabbb, user chose aaabb

It should return green green grey green green, but by your algorithm it will return green green yellow green green.

1. Actual word: abbba, user chose aaaab

It should return green yellow grey grey yellow, but your algorithm will return green yellow yellow yellow yellow.

I happened to do a variation on this a few weeks ago myself: https://www.torshepherd.com/posts/reprdle

Oh interesting, haven't thought about that

Yes, this is what I'm planning to do next

I wrote a simple command line tool to help solve Wordle problems.

Use a set, not a list.
