Impressive win rate!

 

What's the source for the letter frequency in five-letter words?

Here's my score after 20 trials on:

https://www.wordleunlimited.com

with just three words, the successive topscorers "arose" (120 points) and "until" (95 points) followed by "hyper" (84 points) if needed:

I guess the distribution is not much different from yours.

My score against NYT Wordle, only 1/day so it will change very slowly

There's a lot of interest on Wordle.  I was looking to see if there was a way to improve the chances of winning.  Clearly using guesses that contain the "most frequently used" letters and that use letters not already guessed will improve your guesses.  There's no clear "best" answer, and a lot of your success will depend on your vocabulary.

 

There is no "solution" here; I was merely playing with the statistics.

Then there is Primel (converged.yt)

 

This will be a good one for Mathcad
