I'd like to imagine that those 100 people are either colorblind or said "cerulean" or "navy" or something like that.

The cost function just looks like difference squared, but I'm not sure how that yields results like this: Hglmo,wosmd! (8) Gflln* wosle! (9) Hello, wosld! (9999) Hello, world (9999) The bottom two seem to be much closer t
