Wordle for December 9, 2022 - #538
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, 2 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter i is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 1
Letter n is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter t 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 on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 5
Some letters are missing (like n, t, e) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [i r]
Could be a better guess
Attempt 2
Right now we have 2373 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [drail laird liard lurid drill]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d f g h j k l m o p q r s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q r s u v w x y z]

Next guess is laird, let’s see what it gives us
