Luxite, the vital mineral used for super-light travel, comes in five
different varieties (represented here by the letters A-E). Your goal is
to figure out which varieties can be found in each of the five different
promising locations on this plot.
To collect the information, guess any combination of four letters from A
to E (for instance, "ABCD" or "AAAE"). Your detection equipment will
tell you how many "near hits" you've made (where you guessed a type that
does appear, but it's in the wrong place) and how many hits (where
you've guessed the right type and the right place). For instance, if
the correct combination is "AABE" and you guess "AEDC", you score one
hit and one near miss.
You have six chances to refine your guess. The amount of luxite you
produce will be determined by how close you come on your final guess
(and, of course the amount of luxite on the plot to begin with).
Good luck!
