Two things:
1) "It's not working" is one of the most useless problem descriptions we get: it tells us absolutely nothing about the problem. We don't know if you get an error message, or the wrong data, or even that that code compiles successfully!
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with.
So tell us what happens when you run that code, what you expected to happen, how you checked what happened. Help us to help you!

2) While we are more than willing to help those that are stuck, that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.

So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.

If you are having problems getting started at all, then this may help: How to Write Code to Solve a Problem, A Beginner's Guide[^]
Think about how you would do it manually: the number of "right letters" gives you lots of information.
AXCDG (0) - A is not the first, X is not the second, C is not the third, ...
FOUSE (4) - most of the letters are here, so look for identical letters in the others:
POWER (1) - Combined with FOUSE, the second is an O, the others aren't OP, W, E, or R
MOQRT (2) - Combined with FOUSE, and "2 is O", 1 is M

So ... MOUSE is the only possibility.
This isn't complicated, just think about it before leaping into code ...
