Your score is 97.52, higher than 99.83% ———————- paternity chocolate snowblower troglodytes sediment dictionary ricochet ———————— This could be a fun wordle type game that one could play everyday.

For example a naive implementation which is just splitting the strings into chunks of printable characters would be suspectible to this problem. To test this I have tried it with various open compound words. My theory was that it will reject all of t…
