Wordle for August 6, 2023 - #778
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word regal
Attempt for regal gives us 0 correct letters, 1 present letters and 4 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 not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter g is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter a 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 5
Some letters are missing (like r, e, g, a) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [l]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 322 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [linty clint flint blunt litho]
