Task
Hex words
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Definition

For the purposes of this task a hex word means a word which (in lower case form) consists entirely of the letters a, b, c, d, e and f.

Task

Using unixdict.txt, find all hex words with 4 letters or more.

Convert each such word to its decimal equivalent and compute its base 10 digital root.

Display all three in increasing order of digital root and show the total count of such words.

Keeping only words which contain at least 4 distinct letters, display the same statistics but in decreasing order of decimal equivalent together with their total count.

Translation of: Python
F digroot(=n)
   L n > 9
      n = sum(String(n).map(d -> Int(d)))
   R n

V lines = File(‘unixdict.txt’).read().split("\n")
V words = lines.filter(w -> w.len >= 4 & all(w.map(c -> c C ‘abcdef’)))
V results = words.map(w -> (w, Int(w, radix' 16), digroot(Int(w, radix' 16))))

print("Hex words in unixdict.txt:\nRoot  Word      Base 10\n "(‘-’ * 22))
L(a) sorted(results, key' x -> x[2])
   print(f:‘{a[2]}     {a[0]:<6}{a[1]:10}’)

print(‘Total count of these words: ’results.len)
print("\nHex words with > 3 distinct letters:\nRoot  Word      Base 10\n "(‘-’ * 22))
results = results.filter(a -> Set(Array(String(a[0]))).len > 3)
L(a) sorted(results, key' x -> x[2])
   print(f:‘{a[2]}     {a[0]:<6}{a[1]:10}’)

print(‘Total count of those words: ’results.len)
