Wordle for October 4, 2022 - #472
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word trend
Attempt for trend gives us 0 correct letters, 0 present letters and 5 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter r is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter e is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter n is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter d is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like t, r, e, n, d) but it’s also important piece of information
So far we don’t know any of the letters!
Not a bad guess in general
Attempt 2
Right now we have 1410 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [holia shoal shola alish hilsa]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is hilsa, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for hilsa gives us 0 correct letters, 1 present letters and 4 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter h is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 1
Letter i is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter l is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter s is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter a is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like i, l, s, a) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [h]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 3
Right now we have 121 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [choup pouch cough bough chomp]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [b c f g j k m o p q u v w x y z]
At position 2: [b c f g h j k m o p q u v w x y z]
At position 3: [b c f g h j k m o p q u v w x y z]
At position 4: [b c f g h j k m o p q u v w x y z]
At position 5: [b c f g h j k m o p q u v w x y z]
Next guess is bough, let’s see what it gives us
That’s the correct answer! The word is bough!
To be honest that was a pretty lucky guess, but it worked out well.
Conclusion
Today’s word is bough and it took 3 attempts to guess it
