Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word trine
Attempt for trine gives us 1 correct letters, 1 present letters and 3 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 r is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter i is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter n is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Letter e should be at position 5
We got information about the correct letters and it should make next attempt easier
Some letters are missing (like t, r, i) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [n e]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 55 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [anole ulnae lance angle ankle]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d e f g h j k l m n o p q s u v w x y z]

At position 3: [a b c d e f g h j k l m n o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d e f g h j k l m o p q s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [e]
Next guess is angle, let’s see what it gives us

Could be a better guess
