See the idea in action
With APPLE as the answer and ALLEE as the guess, the first A and final E are in the right places. The extra L and E are not both counted as present. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.
Check this before moving on
Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
