Abstract
An improvement in a electronic crossword puzzle solving machine to provide alternate words for a word that is input on the keyboard. A first actuation of a function key labeled 'Second-Guess' initiates a search in which all words in memory having the same number of letters as the input word but differing with respect to only one of those letters is displayed. A second actuation of the 'Second-Guess' key results in a search and display of all words differing from the input word with respect to two of the letters. Each successive actuation of the 'Second-Guess' key increases the number of letters by which the alternate words found differ from the input word.
