How to

If we know a character is not present, add it to this variable:

var not_present = [
    'b',
    'l',
    'a',
    's',
    't',
  ];

And this array is used to track if a character is present and whether or not we know it's position:

 var present = [
    {
      char: 'p',
      pos: true,
    },
    {
      char: 'o',
      pos: false,
    },
    {
      char: '',
      pos: null,
    },
    {
      char: '',
      pos: null,
    },
    {
      char: '',
      pos: null,
    },
  ];
