Wordle for January 8, 2023 - #568
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word doter
Attempt for doter gives us 0 correct letters, 3 present letters and 2 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 o is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
Letter t 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 4
Letter r is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 5
Some letters are missing (like d, t) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [o e r]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 66 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [enrol heron reoil ceorl irone]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c e f g h i j k l m n p q r s u v w x y z]

At position 4: [a b c f g h i j k l m n o p q r s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c e f g h i j k l m n o p q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is irone, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for irone 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 r is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
