I am stuck on puzzle 7.3

What type of answer am I looking for? Numbers or Letters or Both?

[showmyiq]

You are looking for lettered-only answer.
Small letters only, exactly five.

If you need some further hints let me know.

I want to add some hints for Level 7.3, because a lot of agents got stuck here.
This is not some complicated cryptogram. The first part is to translate the two pairs of digits divided by dash, X-X-X. In this step you should make some research on Google, and the third row is a very interesting row, who invented the first digital computer in the 1930s at Iowa State College.

The next part of the puzzle is about the last digit in the row X-X-X. This digit is a magic one, because it will show you two different things in the same time. How much information you need for the specific row (first, last, middle), and then representing a specific letter from each row. That’s all agents, it’s your turn now!

I've gotten letws, and I've tested with a total of 4 different names for the fourth letter and 5 different names for the fifth letter, still to no avail.

You should analyze the third digit further.

x-x-X

You are talking about “names”, so you get the first two digits right. But about the third one – you should find the correct logic.

For example the following word is equal to “Ape”:

1899-1980-1
1935-2007-2
1935-1977-1

If you need more hints – let me know.
