Solve the word ladder game, where you provide two words of the same length, and need to change one word into the other, changing only one letter at a time, while only forming valid words.
Enter the starting word: party
Enter the target word (if any): grows
2 optimal solution(s) of length 9 found:
party → parts → carts → carps → corps → coops → crops → crows → grows
party → parts → ports → sorts → soots → slots → slows → glows → grows
Or find the hardest words you can from a given starting word, eg.
Enter the starting word: party
Enter the target word (if any):
Final words: above, aloud, anode
1 optimal solution(s) of length 18 found:
party → pasty → paste → passe → posse → poise → prise → prose → prone → crone → clone → alone → aline → amine → amide → abide → abode → above
This is still a work in progress, but you can do the following:
python -m make5.solve
Enter your grid with commas between rows, and . for empty (eg. .....,...n.,f..a.,t..nk,....s)
? .....,...n.,f..a.,t..nk,....s
01234
0 ?????
1 ???N?
2 F??A?
3 T??NK
4 ????S
Enter the new letter: O
Best locations (analysing depth 1):
(1, 2): 72.1 upony ufond whonk upond muons phony / comfy bobby poppy youch cocky popup
(1, 4): 53.8 hymn. upon. spun. shun. cyan. faun. / bob.. bop.. bow.. box.. boy.. cob..

(3, 1): 49.6 top.. tow.. toy.. .own. tog.. ton.. / buxom bijou yukon phlox bosom fluor
This shows the top few locations to place the letter, based on the expected scores of the rows and columns (adjusted for the likelihood of getting the required letters). It does not yet consider the consequences of placing the letter on other rows and columns.
You can also use:
python -m make5.play_line
to get all the words matching a pattern, ranked by their scores adjusted for the likelihood of getting the remaining letters. The score shown for each is calculated using a score of 1 per letter per subword.
See the pipenv documentation for the steps to install python 3, pip and pipenv.
On a Mac, you will need to install python 3 as described above (python 2 is the default).
The simplest way to install pipenv is to install homebrew, and then type brew install pipenv.
On linux, this link may be helpful.
Enter the boggle directory, and type:
pipenv install --dev
This creates an environment containing the required packages, which you enter by typing:
pipenv shell
Eg. http://www.mieliestronk.com/wordlist.html . Use lower-case.
Save as words.txt in the data directory.
Just type one of:
python -m boggle.solve
or
python -m word_ladder.solve
In the pipenv environment, make sure this command runs without error:
bin/check_code
Install PyCharm or a similar editor. A vanilla text editor is fine too.
You can clone this repo, and type
bin/rename foo_bar
to get it ready to use as a project named "foo_bar".
Note to finish the process properly, you should then do the following:
1. rm -rf .git
2. Update README.md
3. Update the description and author in setup.py
4. git init && git add --all && git commit -m 'initial commit'
