Dog and 2 cats; Thanks for entry, as I made the error on this game Badstruden
gave the correct answer when he said it was impossible.
I have put the game on again with the added number, it you get a chance to try there.

Well done you got the correct answer, had to wait until correct version finished before I could tell you. But I have to be fair, when the other person said it was impossible, it was.

40394 R2 W1
90394 R1 W1
42369 R0 W2
There is no solution. In 40394 there are two correct numbers in the correct place, in 90394 there is one correct number in the correct place. Since the only difference between the two is the 4 changing to a 9, the 4 must have been the right number in the right place.
Since you say 42369 has no correct numbers in the correct places, 4 cannot be the first number, this contradicts the previous result.
