No, you are not comparing with the real answer.  What you are comparing with to derive the score test is,  you compare your guess with each of the 1296 possible answers and eliminate the ones that would not give you the score that you feed it.

Technically, you would not tell the computer what the answer is so it can compare with it.  It usually has a fixed first guess of 0011.  You then feed the computer the result of his guess with, something like, 1 right color right spot, 1 right color wrong spot (or whatever the case may be).  Then the computer should be able to calculate the next best guess by comparing the results with all 1296 possible answers.

The comparison with the real answer is just eliminating the input you would normally feed it.  It just uses the real score just to calculate the input that you would normally feed it.

If it makes you feel any better, you can leave that part of the programming out and instead program it to allow user input so you can tell it what its score is.
