5. bestGuess = "No words found in dictionary"
6. for i in range(2, cipherLen + 1) :
7. words = railDecrypt(cipherText, i)
8. goodCount = 0
9. for w in words:
10. if w in wordDict:
11. goodCount = goodCount + 1
12. if goodCount > maxGoodSoFar:
13. maxGoodSoFar = goodCount
14. bestGuess = " ".join(words)
15. return bestGuess
