A useful example
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. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Read the matching step again.
Watch out for this
Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. Compare the situation with the worked example. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
