By now you must have heard of this word game: Wordle.
My oldest brother introduced it to us, his siblings and now 5 of the 6 of us play every morning and share our scores.
If you're not familiar with it, here is the set up. You're trying to guess a five letter word. You type your first guess in the first line. Green letters are correct and in the right spot. Yellow letters are correct but not in the correct spot. As you can see above the R & T were correct but only the T was correctly placed in my first guess of HEART. My second guess established there was an O but I still didn't have the R correctly placed. By the 3rd guess I placed the O but forgot about the R. My 4th guess identified a B in the word but not as the beginning letter again forgetting about the R. I got the word on my 5th guess.
Here are my statistics as of Friday. The very first time I played I didn't understand the color coding and didn't guess the word at all. Since then I have gotten the word every time. As it shows above I have gotten it 3 times each on 3rd and 4th try and 5 times on the 5th try. Friday I got it on the 3rd try.
Above was Friday's guess. I did better than the day before but it was a lucky guess!
