I won't spoil how it works, but click the "?" button on the page if you want to know.
- pxx 5y agoIt's designed to be, but it isn't necessarily, as it uses the size of the remaining solution set as a heuristic for how many guesses are needed to split it. There are better, more exhaustive searches of the solution space now.
- d4rkp4ttern 5y agoSince it is adversarial, it is also deterministic, I.e, for a given play, its response will always be the same. So the challenge here is no longer, “can you guess THE word?”, but rather, “can you find the shortest play?”. Finding a 5-step solution is reasonably challenging, but try for a 4-step solution, it will drive you nuts :) Some have been posted on Twitter but that’s no fun.
