Something is amiss in the outpost....

Just when I think I am getting somewhere with the testing then I go back, literally to square one..
I get the underscores then I take the letters (the ones that registered the underscores) switch them around then get all "0's" or maybe a "1" even though they're the same numbers.

It's hilarious...

Careful! The underscores don't tell you which letter is right. One underscore in the result only tells you that one of the letters in your code is in the right place - there's no correspondence of the location of the underscore to the correctly placed letter.

Take another look at this post. Notice how "_ 0 0 0" in reaction to "AABB" did not necessarily mean that A is in position 1.

Differently worded: If you enter "AABB" and the code really is "cCBa", you will not get "0 0 _ 0", you will get "_ 0 0 0", which is telling you "one of the letters in the code you tested is in the right place". Which one of those letters it is, it won't tell you. You need to test additional codes to rule out constellations.
