A game of code cracking exercise.
Though I do understand that others play it differently, that just isn't me.
I use solving the game by practicing using some bash skills I don't otherwise use often enough to keep fresh in memory for when I need them. This is those steps for others if they wish to follow. If you have a different starting word, you will need to adjust the commands as appropriate.

There are lists of the first words in the game(some were dropped), all 5 letter words, and the list that is in there now. I use the first shorter list for most of my work, and the later for when my results get odd or what if scenarios.
- Enter into a bash shell
- I make sure I'm in a 'home' folder
- Make sure I have those word files
- Enter my starting word
- based on what letters work or not, filter/egrep a word file to get a reduced set of words in 'test'
- find the letter distribution with sed+
- grep the most common letters to find my next level guess. - PgUp to my earlier egrep line to update based on newest findings and repeat until I find The Word.
The following are the commands so that I can copy 'n paste as needed for these steps, for when I'm not on my home systems.

cd /home/Akonecny/
wget https://www.konecnyad.ca/chaosadventurer/thewordle.txt

sed 's/./&\n/g' test | sort | uniq -ic |sort -k 1
