You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Bulls and Cows is an old game played with pencil and paper that was later implemented using computers.
- Task
Create a four digit random number from the digits 1 to 9, without duplication.
The program should:
- ask for guesses to this number
- reject guesses that are malformed
- print the score for the guess
The score is computed as:
- The player wins if the guess is the same as the randomly chosen number, and the program ends.
- A score of one bull is accumulated for each digit in the guess that equals the corresponding digit in the randomly chosen initial number.
- A score of one cow is accumulated for each digit in the guess that also appears in the randomly chosen number, but in the wrong position.

Coco
To handle I/O, we use functions named say (which simply outputs a string) and prompt (which takes a prompt string to display to the user and returns a line of input, without a trailing newline). These require platform-specific implementations. Here's how they can be implemented for the SpiderMonkey shell:
<lang coco>say = print prompt = (str) ->
putstr str readline! ? quit!</lang>
We can now solve the task using say and prompt:
<lang coco>const SIZE = 4
secret = _.sample ['1' to '9'], SIZE
for ever
var guess
for ever
guess := _.uniq prompt 'Enter a guess: '
if guess.length === SIZE and not _.difference guess, ['1' to '9'] .length
break
say 'Malformed guess; try again.'
bulls = cows = 0
for i til SIZE
if guess[i] === secret[i]
++bulls
else if _.contains secret, guess[i]
++cows
if bulls === SIZE
break
say "#bulls bull#{[if bulls !== 1 then 's']}, #cows cow#{[if cows !== 1 then 's']}."
say 'A winner is you!'</lang>

The number of bulls (digits in right place)
The number of cows (correct digits, but in wrong place)
Your guess #1: 1234
Bulls: 0, cows: 2
Your guess #2: 5678

The computer has selected a number that consists of four different digits.
As you are guessing the number, "bulls" and "cows" will be awarded: a "bull" for each digit that is placed in the correct position, and a "cow" for each digit that occurs in the number, but in a different place.
For a guess, enter 4 digits. Any other input is interpreted as "I give up".

REXX
This game is also known as:
- Pigs and Bulls
- Bulls and Cleots
- Mastermind
- Master Mind
version 1
This REXX version of Bulls and Cows doesn't allow repeated digits (in the computer-generated number),
nor the use of the zero digit.
To allow a zero digit, see the comment about the random BIF invocation.
To allow repeated digits in the computer-generated number, delete the REXX statement if pos(r,?)···,
and also change the prompt message.
The REXX statement that contains the translate statement can be removed if repeated digits aren't allowed.

Version 2
<lang rexx> /*REXX program to play the game of "Bulls & Cows". *******************
- Changes from Version 1:
- ?= -> qq= (righthandside mandatory and I never use ? as symbol -
- although it is available on all Rexxes)
- implemented singular/plural distinction differently
- change getRand to avoid invalid digit rejection
- check user's input for multiple digits
- add feature MM to ease guessing (MM=Mastermind - a similar game)
- add feature ? to see the solution (for the impatient player)
- program runs as is on ooRexx and on TSO (after changing | to !)
- Made source and output more compact
- formatted source 'my way' 2 July 2012 Walter Pachl
