Wordle for May 10, 2023 - #690
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word repot
Attempt for repot gives us 0 correct letters, 2 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter r 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 p is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter o 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 5
Some letters are missing (like r, p, o) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [e t]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 163 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [laten lated ethal lathe tilde]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d e f g h i j k l m n q s t u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l m n q s t u v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d e f g h i j k l m n q s t u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d e f g h i j k l m n q s t u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d e f g h i j k l m n q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is tilde, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for tilde gives us 0 correct letters, 3 present letters and 2 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter t is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 1
Letter i is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
Letter l is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
