Poople #355: REIN to POOP

August 4, 2026 · Medium · par 6 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is REIN → RAIN → LAIN → LOIN → LOON → LOOP → POOP. That is 6 moves, and the par stored next to REIN in the client is 6.

I walked REIN forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced REIN → RAIN → LAIN → LOIN → LOON → LOOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. REIN → RAIN: letter 2 changes from E to A.
  2. RAIN → LAIN: letter 1 changes from R to L.
  3. LAIN → LOIN: letter 2 changes from A to O.
  4. LOIN → LOON: letter 3 changes from I to O.
  5. LOON → LOOP: letter 4 changes from N to P.
  6. LOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from L to P.
