I've been going through the archives and it's frankly insulting how easy this is, like I completed the following in less than 30 seconds:

Like people, all you have to do is get the 5-letter Scrabble word list, copy it into Excel, and write a simple boolean search algorithm in VBA. I have spent more time creating a usable UI for my program than doing these pathetic puzzles. The creators don't even think enough of you to use the uncommon Scrabble words like 'zaxes'.

    Your method is laughably inefficient, it's far faster to just google the answer

      It's far faster to just look at the hardcoded word list in the source code and get all the answers in order at once.

      Lol, it's pretty shitty but all I write now are Excel apps and I have to write it in VBA becuase that's the only thing people in the office understand. Its been so long I don't think I can even use another language now.

      Thankfully that's not my primary job, but I'm the only one in our group that can do even use VBA.

        When I was in uni, me and a friend where doing some lab work, and we were logged in on the lab account (on windows xp i think or maybe vista, although it wasn't that long ago, pc's were just running very old software). Anyway we decided haunt the computer by writing a script in VBA that would run at start up and randomly open the CD tray on long time intervals.

        That's pretty much my only experience with VBA lol

      I at least get a kick out of picking random 5 letter words, rather than the statistical best

      Mine is “lares, doubt, chimp”. I guess I could swap in “donut”.

    Lol my last gig our TV with important stats went down so instead of fixing the tv I just made an entire program that puts all of that information in an icon on your system tray instead. Tv was fixed the next day.

    I don't play Wordle, but if I did, I'd probably want it to be relaxing, even easy.

    Not everything has to be Dark Souls or Cuphead. :shrug-outta-hecks:
