Someone improved my code by 40,832,277,770%

Stand-up Maths

YES, the improvement should be 40,832,277,770%, not what I say in the video. The "408,322,778" multiple was correct and I did the percentage the wrong way. There will not be a follow-up video to correct that. The improvement was to my code from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-AfhLQfb6w This is episode 038 of the A Problem Squared podcast which started it all: https://aproblemsquared.libsyn.com/038-fldxt-in-wordle-and-improv-tact-hurdle Here is Benjamin Paaßen's full grid of all results and techniques used. It also has links to all the code as well. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11sUBkPSEhbGx2K8ah6WbGV62P8ii5l5vVeMpkzk17PI/edit#gid=0 The article by "encody" I mentioned: https://medium.com/geeklaunch/how-to-speed-up-your-code-224-444-739-using-graphs-cc37dc395c0c This is the reverse-frequency alphabet. Which is frequency in words, not in use (which would allow for frequency of word use; this list counts each word once). QXJZVFWBKGPMHDCYTLNUROISEA And whynot, a whole bunch of code. All of it is better than mine. All of it. (Even if you ran it all sequentially.)

Without them test running all that code I'd never know how much better an iPad is than me. I'm sure I'll need Patreon help again soon; you can join the team here: https://www.patreon.com/standupmaths CORRECTIONS - Ha, I got the percentage around the wrong way. Should be 40,832,277,770% better. - Yes, I missed the binary digit for the "A" in "BREAD" and everyone in the live premier chat noticed. Sorry about that. 🍞 - Let me know if you spot any other mistakes!
