Yes, it's a form of AI, or an algorithm, that's why I was telling you.
The game is to guess a five letter word in six goes, with each try, the game will tell you if you have correctly placed a letter in the word, or the letter is in the word but in the wrong place, or the letter is not in the word; so with each guess, you start to get clues about the final word.
It is quite amazing how difficult it is sometimes to guess any words that might have the letters in that you do know. I have ruminated for hours over the next guess. The helper, the AI bit, presents you with a list of words with your already known letters in them.
It would be a form of cheating if you were in a competition or posting it on Hive.
ah okay. sounds like an interesting game, though one I would have been great at "back in the day" but would suck hard at now. Might give it a go, just to make me depressed. I used to love word games....
It is a bit like hangman by the sounds.
I struggle sometimes when I am tired.
Yes, it is a bit like hangman, that's a good comparison.
I've never commented about your stroke, it always felt too intrusive (or the danger of being facile about someone else's experience), even though you have been very open about it. Several people around me have had strokes, including my previous partner. It was very tough, but I read a huge amount about it, and about recovery and how long it takes, and although my partner didn't recover, I was heartened by the possibilities of recovery.
