Wordle for October 7, 2023 - #840
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word nurse
Attempt for nurse gives us 0 correct letters, 0 present letters and 5 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
Letter u 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 s 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
Some letters are missing (like n, u, r, s, e) but it’s also important piece of information
So far we don’t know any of the letters!
Not a bad guess in general
Attempt 2
Right now we have 992 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [dotal datil dital tidal altho]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q t v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q t v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q t v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q t v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d f g h i j k l m o p q t v w x y z]
Next guess is tidal, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for tidal gives us 1 correct letters, 2 present letters and 2 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter i should be at position 2
Letter d is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter a is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Letter l is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 5
We got information about the correct letters and it should make next attempt easier
Some letters are missing (like t, d) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [i a l]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 3
Right now we have 8 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [viola milpa wilga cilia limma]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q v w x y z]
At position 2: [i]
At position 3: [a b c f g h i j k l m o p q v w x y z]
At position 4: [b c f g h i j k l m o p q v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c f g h i j k m o p q v w x y z]
Next guess is viola, let’s see what it gives us
That’s the correct answer! The word is viola!
