Began a new little side project. About a year ago, I wrote a Python app to suggest Hangman guesses. It was simple but surprisingly effective, especially for medium-to-long words. Its obvious weakness was shorter words, especially those under six letters long. I am going to attempt to improve the algorithm using some information theory and Rust magic. I also decided to make this a command line tool, as opposed to the original GUI, since Hangman works elegantly when thought of as a stateless game. Right now, I just wrote up some boilerplate code and passed all the tests.
