Nerdle
Welcome to Nerdle - the mathematical twist on Wordle! Instead of guessing words, you'll be solving mathematical equations. Put your arithmetic skills to the test as you try to figure out the correct numbers and operators that make up each day's equation.
How to Play
Basic Rules
Guess the equation in 6 tries. Each guess must be a valid mathematical equation:
- Use numbers (0-9)
- Basic operators (+, -, *, /, =)
- Must be mathematically correct
- Result must be a positive integer
Example Valid Equations
- 12+24=36
- 8*9=72
- 48/6=8
Color Feedback
After each guess, tiles will change color to show how close you are:
- š© Green: Correct number/operator in correct position
- šØ Yellow: Correct number/operator in wrong position
- ā¬ Gray: Number/operator not in the equation
Equation Rules
- Must follow order of operations (PEMDAS)
- Must include equals sign (=)
- Must result in a valid equation
- No decimal results allowed
Game Strategy
Starting Strategies
- Start with simple equations using common numbers
- Try to identify the operator pattern early
- Pay attention to the length of the equation
- Remember that all numbers must work mathematically
Advanced Techniques
- Use process of elimination with colored feedback
- Consider mathematical patterns
- Look for common factors and multiples
- Think about equation length constraints
Example Gameplay
First try: 23+45=68 šØā¬š©ā¬šØ
Second try: 15+48=63 š©ā¬š©šØā¬
Final try: 12+45=57 š©š©š©š©š©
Tips for Success
Common Patterns
- Look for round numbers in results
- Consider basic multiplication tables
- Watch for repeated digits
- Note equation length patterns
Mathematical Principles
- Results are always positive integers
- Division must result in whole numbers
- Multiplication often creates patterns
- Addition/subtraction maintain digit count
Frequently Asked Questions
What operators can I use?
You can use addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/). Remember that every equation must include an equals sign (=) and result in a whole number.
Can equations have multiple steps?
Yes! Equations can involve multiple operations, but they must follow the standard order of operations (PEMDAS) and result in a valid mathematical statement.
How often are new puzzles available?
A new Nerdle puzzle is available every day at midnight. Each puzzle is unique and provides a fresh mathematical challenge!
What makes a valid equation?
A valid equation must:
- Use correct mathematical operators
- Follow order of operations
- Result in a whole number
- Be mathematically correct
- Include an equals sign
PEMDAS Reference
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiplication and Division (left to right)
