Here is a challenge open to everyone...

The goal is to post Pythonista code that prints the first 10 English words and the last 10 English words in the iOS builtin Dictionary (no external dictionaries or wordlists are allowed). Extra credit for implementations that do not use objc_util.

@ccc We could try a loop on 'a', 'aa', ... until we find 10 accepted words with a UIReferenceLibraryViewController object (ok, it is with Objectivec, but it is a beginning 😀)

Perhaps I should have set a time limit! I believe that the use of objc_util will be required but I would love to be proven wrong.
