Why did this become more popular than the cows and bulls game?
- Did adding the constrain of 5 letter words make it simple for people to understand?
- The share doesn't share much info. Did that add to the mystery around the game?
TODO
Number of Combinations
- There are six attempts.
- Most cells can be yellow, grey, green, or unused.
- We need at-least one attempt to guess. So first row can be only yellow, grey, green. Might be better to break this down as first row green + second row green + .... + 6th row green + none of the rows green.
- 1st row green
- 1
- 2nd row green
- 5 x 3^5
- 3 rd row green
- (5 x 3^5)^2
- 4 th row green
- (5 x 3^5)^3
- 5 th row green
- (5 x 3^5)^3
- 1st row green
