This script serves as a helper tool for the Binance "Word of the Day" (WOTD) challenge. The WOTD is a daily game where participants guess a word based on certain clues provided by Binance. The tool is designed to filter and suggest words that match the given criteria, making it easier for users to guess the correct word.
The script processes a list of words and applies a series of filters to narrow down the potential matches based on the rules and clues provided for the WOTD. The filters include:
- Ensuring that the word consists of alphabetic characters only.
- Checking the word length to match the expected number of characters (typically four).
- Excluding words that contain certain unwanted letters.
- Making sure that the word contains certain required letters.
- Verifying that certain letters are not present at specific positions in the word.
- Ensuring that certain letters are placed at specific positions in the word.
After applying all the necessary filters, the script also counts the occurrences of each letter in the surviving words and calculates a score for each word based on the frequency of the letters it contains. Words are then sorted by the unique number of letters they contain and their score, with the results printed out for the user.
By using this tool, participants can significantly cut down the number of possible words and focus their effort on a smaller, more targeted subset of words, increasing their chances of success in the WOTD challenge.
