Description

The classic game of logic, this time with four-letter English words.

Updates

Bug Fix: Thanks for the comments, everyone. Fixed clue display bug; now accepts input from number keys above the letters (I don’t know how I missed that!); clearer instructions

Instructions

Try to guess the computer’s four-letter word. After each guess the computer will award you with bulls (or black marks) and cows (or white marks) to signify, respectively, correct letters in correct positions and correct letters in incorrect positions.

Under rating threshold (show) Why does it moo, and what does mooing mean? Are moos "cows", or is that what it does if you've got neither bulls nor cows as a result of your guess? If these are the more detailed instructions, you've still got some work to do. I suggest a small non-interactive demo where a person can watch a whole word being solved, so that we can see what the output looks like in a few different cases.

Under rating threshold (show) first off, you don't need a numpad, just the normal number keys at the top. secondly, for you that think that you can't have a numpad on a laptop, you are flatout wrong. thirdly, this computer is very efficient at solving the words, in the future, I suggest that you have multiple AIs for different levels, increasing in difficulty, and also a mode where the AI can be random.
