Logik game

Letter game Logik is a two player game, which has the following rules:
1. The first player thinks five-letter word in which no letter is not
repeated.
2. The second player writes a five-letter word.
3. The first player answers two numbers - the first number indicates how many letters written word coincides with the imaginary word, and is also on the correct position; the second number indicates how many letters written word is contained in the imaginary word, but is not the right place.
4. Steps 2 and 3 are repeated until the second player imaginary word guess.
Recording one game of two friends looked like this:
SONET 1 2
MUDRC 0 2
PLAST 0 2
KMOTR 0 4
ATOLY 1 1
DOGMA 0 2

The next move was meant by the word guessed. Determine which word
it was.

Note:
Our presented solution contains a program in PHP language, which will solve the given combination of letters - by brute force, quickly and painlessly.

Result

x = (Correct answer is: STROM)

Solution:

x = STROM

function match($s1, $s2, $q, $w)
{
    $a = $b = 0;
    for($i=0;$i<5;$i++)
    {
        if($s1{$i} == $s2{$i})
        {
            $a++;
        }
        else
        {
            $b += strpos($s2, $s1{$i})!==false;
        }
    }

    return $a == $q && $b == $w;
}

for($a=65; $a<91; $a++)
{
    for($b=65; $b<91; $b++)
    {
        for($c=65; $c<91; $c++)
        {
            for($d=65; $d<91; $d++)
            {
                for($e=65; $e<91; $e++)
                {
                    $s=chr($a).chr($b).chr($c).chr($d).chr($e);
                    if(!match($s,"SONET", 1, 2)) continue;
                    if(!match($s,"MUDRC", 0, 2)) continue;
                    if(!match($s,"PLAST", 0, 2)) continue;
                    if(!match($s,"KMOTR", 0, 4)) continue;
                    if(!match($s,"ATOLY", 1, 1)) continue;
                    if(!match($s,"DOGMA", 0, 2)) continue;

                    echo $s;
                    exit;
                }
            }
        }

    }
