Rules

Guess the NERDLE in 6 tries. After each try, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess is to the solution.

If the tile becomes GREEN, your number or operation is located at correct place. If the tile becomes RED, your number or opeartion exists within the expression, but at different place.

• Each try is a calculation (math expression).
• You can use 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 + - * / or =.
• It must contain one “=”.
• It must only have a number to the right of the “=”, not another calculation.
• Standard order of operations applies, so calculate * and / before + and - eg. 3+2*5=13 not 25!

Screw-blank feeder mechanism In 1856, Cullen Whipple, of Providence, RI, patented a screw-blank feeder mechanism (U.S. No. 15,052). In Oct 1840, he was one of ten incorporators of The New England Screw Co. He invented a machine for the company to use cutting the threads of screws (patented 18 Aug 1842) which he later improved by adding more cutters to also point the screws in the same machine (patent No. 9,477, 14 Dec 1852). He patented various other devices for improving the manufacture of screws. He has been credited* as the inventor of the first practical machine for pointing screws. Early screws had no point and required that a starter hole be drilled before use.«[Note: Famous First Facts by Joseph Nathan Kane incorrectly cites this screw-blank feeder mechanism's 3 Jun 1856 date and patent number as the first practical screw-pointing machine patent. In fact, Whipple invented his screw pointing machine four years earlier - in 1852.]
