Hi. My friend gave me a good wake up exercise which I do not want you to solve for me: find all strings which can be converted to alpha with at most two operations, where alpha is some string constant, and a substring of at least length three of alpha must be in the answers.
I'd like to try this exercise too; would you mind defining "operations" more specifically, please? Given a sufficiently broad meaning of "operations" (e.g. operation = any function call) then any word can be converted into any given word with at most ONE operation.
So, my question is: is there a library or .txt dictionary ( not the data type, rather the merriam webster kind ) I can use to test my script on? I'd imagine this library/dictionary to contain thousands of words. Not random words.
