Wordle Solver

Overview

This is yet another wordle solver. It is built with the word list of the official wordle website, but it should also work with most wordle websites. The algorithm is quite efficient, but it is not perfect. On playing 50 games of wordle using the solver, the average number of tries it took to guess the word is 3.86.
