Poople #401: FANS to POOP

September 19, 2026 · Easy · par 5 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is FANS → CANS → CONS → COOS → COOP → POOP. That is 5 moves, and the par stored next to FANS in the client is 5.

I walked FANS forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced FANS → CANS → CONS → COOS → COOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. FANS → CANS: letter 1 changes from F to C.
  2. CANS → CONS: letter 2 changes from A to O.
  3. CONS → COOS: letter 3 changes from N to O.
  4. COOS → COOP: letter 4 changes from S to P.
  5. COOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from C to P.
