Willamette Wordle

The object of the Wordle puzzle is to figure out the hidden five-letter word using no more than six guesses.

When you type in a word (either using your computer keyboard or the onscreen one) and then hit the RETURN or ENTER key, the program gives you information about how close your guess is by coloring the background of the letters:

• For every letter in your guess that is in its correct position, Wordle colors the background a light shade of green.
• For every letter that appears in the word but is not in the correct position, Wordle colors the background a brownish yellow.
• All letters in the guess that don’t appear in the word are colored a medium gray.
