Wordle for October 9, 2022 - #477
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word tuner
Attempt for tuner 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 u 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 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 t, u, n, e, r) 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 1200 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [dhyal chold child aloid dolia]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q s v w x y z]
Next guess is child, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for child gives us 0 correct letters, 2 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter c is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter h is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
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 d is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 5
Some letters are missing (like c, i, l) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [h d]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 3
Right now we have 272 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [dashy haddo howdy hoddy kados]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b d f g h j k m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b d f g j k m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b d f g h j k m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b d f g h j k m o p q s v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b f g h j k m o p q s v w x y z]
Next guess is dashy, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for dashy gives us 1 correct letters, 2 present letters and 2 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter d 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 s is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter h is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Letter y should be at position 5
We got information about the correct letters and it should make next attempt easier
Some letters are missing (like a, s) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [h d y]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 4

So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [b f g h j k m o p q v w x y z]
At position 2: [b d f g j k m o p q v w x y z]
At position 3: [b d f g h j k m o p q v w x y z]
At position 4: [b d f g j k m o p q v w x y z]
At position 5: [y]
