Acrostic Solver

Get a dictionary file (text file with one word per line) from here and change the WORDLIST variable accordingly.

SQUARE holds the square - without spaces or anything else. Just all letters one after another.

At the bottom, the letters variable holds all available letters from the SQUARE and their amounts.

To start a search, run:

result = try_solve(letters.copy())
print(result)

If it doesn't find anything, try a different wordlist or specify a limit to which you want to search to:

result = try_solve(letters.copy(), max_level=4)
print(result)

If you already have the first and second words, use this:

rem_first = check_valid("BEACON", letters.copy())    # get remaining letters after first word
rem_second = check_valid("NROBE", rem_first.copy())  # get remaining letters after second word (NOTE: Since the letter "E" is used up already, we specify NROBE.)
result = try_solve(rem_second.copy(), ["BEACON", "ENROBE"])   # solve remaining
print(result)
