Wordle for August 17, 2023 - #789
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word mpret
Attempt for mpret gives us 0 correct letters, 1 present letters and 4 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter m is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 1
Letter p is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
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 t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like p, r, e, t) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [m]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 256 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [liman ulmin nymil domal nomad]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l m n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d f g h i j k l m n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d f g h i j k l m n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d f g h i j k l m n o q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is nomad, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for nomad gives us 0 correct letters, 2 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter n is not present in the word and we will not use it any more

Not a bad guess in general
