Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word redly
Attempt for redly gives us 0 correct letters, 2 present letters and 3 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 l is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
