First-turn measures

All four describe CHART used as an opening guess. Entropy is the same idea as “avg ruled out” on a log scale: a higher number means the guess splits the possible answers into more, smaller groups.

5.19 Entropy (bits)
146 Avg remaining
0.04% Exact match
93.9% Avg ruled out
Higher first-turn entropy than about 92% of evaluated openers
0.76 bits below the highest measured first-turn entropy (~5.95 bits)
