Overview

About

Maintained by David SmithFirst published 2022-02-011 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

The 'Wordle' game. Players have six attempts to guess a five-letter word. After each guess, the player is informed which letters in their guess are either: anywhere in the word; in the right position in the word. This can be used to inform the next guess. Can be played interactively in the console, or programmatically. Based on Josh Wardle's game https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/.
