+ "\n",
+ "For Hangman, we want to guess the letter that will eliminate half the `candidate_words`. For each letter that's present in all of the candidate words, score the letter +1 for every word it appears in, and -1 for every word it doesn't appear in. The closer the total is to zero, the closer letter is to being in half the `candidate_words`. We then pick the unguesses letter with the score closest to zero.\n",
+ "\n",
+ "As the `PlayerAdaptivePattern` seems to work well, we'll use that to keep track of the `candidate_words`. This variant changes the order of the letters, so it's a rewrite of `set_ordered_letters()`."
