this function helps you solve wordle puzzles.

readme.md

Three parameters:

1. yes_letters: a five character string of letters and periods s...d
2. maybe_letters: an unlimited character string of letters that exist somewhere in the word "rw"
3. no_letters: an unlimited character string of letters that do NOT exist in the word "zthgf"

We attempt to filter the wordlist in that order, based on parameter availability

If you supply the parameter in that order, names are not needed.

PS C:\> find-wordle "s...d" "wr" "z"

If you need to supply yes_letters and no_letters but not maybe_letters, then you'll need to supply param names!

PS C:\> find-wordle -yes_letters "s...d" -no_letters "z"
