Don’t ask me how I found out, but my Wordle hack has now been cited in two peer-reviewed computer science papers.

I knew about one. This paper by my friend Nisansa was published in Feb 2022, in the height of the Wordle craze: Selecting Seed Words for Wordle using Character Statistics.

I only just found out about this one: Finding Wordle Strategies That Can be Mastered by Humans.

Not bad for something my tiny brain came up with.
