Wordle for November 19, 2022 - #518
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word inter
Attempt for inter gives us 0 correct letters, 3 present letters and 2 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter i 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 t is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 3
Letter e is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Letter r is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 5
Some letters are missing (like i, n) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [t e r]
Could be a better guess
Attempt 2
Right now we have 3582 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [alert lerot relot derat drate]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d e f g h j k l m o p q r s t u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d e f g h j k l m o p q r s t u v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d e f g h j k l m o p q r s u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d f g h j k l m o p q r s t u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d e f g h j k l m o p q s t u v w x y z]
Next guess is derat, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for derat gives us 1 correct letters, 3 present letters and 1 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter d is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter e is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
Letter r is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 3
Letter a is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Letter t should be at position 5
We got information about the correct letters and it should make next attempt easier
Some letters are missing (like d) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [t e r a]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 3
