Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word taler
Attempt for taler gives us 0 correct letters, 2 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter t is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 1
Letter a is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter l is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 3
Letter e 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
Some letters are missing (like a, e, r) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [t l]
Not a bad guess in general
