The secret agent X emailed a code word to his head office.
They are "AIM DUE OAT TIE MOD". But four of these five words
are fake and only one contains the information.
The agent X also mailed a sentence as a clue - if I tell you
any one character of the code word, you would be able to
tell the number of vowels in the code word.
Can you tell which is the code word?

Answer / guest
The code word is TIE.
If you were told any one character of MOD, then you would
not be able to determine whether the number of vowels are
one or two. e.g. if you were told M, there are two words
with M - AIM with 2 vowels and MOD with 1 vowel. So you
would not be able to say the number of vowels. Same
arguments can be given for characters O and D.
Hence, the word with any one of M, O or D is not a code word
i.e. AIM, DUE, OAT and MOD are not the code word. Thus, TIE
is the code word.
T : two words - TIE and OAT, both with 2 vowels
I : two words - TIE and AIM, both with 2 vowels
E : two words - TIE and DUE, both with 2 vowels.

Answer / salma
Its DUE
He use to tell only one character thats 'U'.
As all other four words related to each other
AIM - if he tells its 'A' his boss cant identify that its
AIM 'coz some other word also with the same character
Let us take for
AIM: A-AIM,OAT I-AIM,TIE M-AIM,MOD
OAT: O-OAT,MOD A-OAT,AIM T-OAT,TIE
TIE: T-TIE,OAT I-TIE,AIM E-TIE,DUE
MOD: M-MOD,AIM O-MOD,OAT D-MOD,DUE
DUE: D-DUE,MOD U-DUE alone E-DUE.TIE
if any other character in any other word he will tell, then
his boss can't tell the vowels in the words as its related
to some other word.
