Challenge #182: Word Sleuthing

Verakso
11 - Bolide

This was actually quite some challenge.

 

I, as many others, did originally not the the same result, and I bluntly assume, that is because the approach and interpretation of, what does make a word, is is different.

 

E.g. I would not consider the word Gateway_ with an underscore to be a complete word of it's own, I would consider it similar toi Gateway with out the underscore. Never the less, these and many more are counted as different words in the solution.

 

So all though I do not concur with the provided result, once I tried to think, how that particular result was made, I actually was able to match the exact same output with this solution.

Oh yeah. I also went for the option to download the text file and parse that

My assumption here was that the RegEx like (\w+) was used, I tried originally to use the "Whole Word"  RegEx like \<\w+\>, but that yields a completely different outcome.

Watch out for trunc... <hint hint> Fixing the length helped me get the numbers in line with expectations. Some cleaning up after the mess I created helped match things up. 
Tried both methods from file and download and got the same results.

@cplewis90  take a look at this guide and you'll be able to change the workflow to 2019.2 with a little notepad manipulation.

After realizing I was not paying attention to where I was saving my unpackaged workflows, I finally finished my workflow faster than figuring out unpackaging lol. Thanks to @TylerNa and others for sending notes to help! Helps when you actually look at where you save things.

I was able to get matching results. Pretty happy with my first attempt to complete a weekly challenge 🙂

I also managed to get close to, but not exactly the same as the provided solution.

I do see that the provided solution has a number of words with leading or trailing underscores which doesn't seem particularly desirable.

Here is my solution ! Also got slightly different results : didn't modify the case, removed numbers, whitespaces, line breaks and punctuation.
