Advent of Code 2023, Day 12

This one took me longer than I had anticipated. Even though it successfully solved the sample input on the first try, the same couldn't be said for the personalized one. I spent most of the night rewriting it because my solution was not cacheable.

Today's problem was quite tricky as I lost some time with an algorithm that was unfit but I haven't noticed until late into the solution.

Go solution (with Manhattan distance, 500ms runtime both parts): https://t.co/XO3cSJRrVm

I initially believed that altering the exit condition and iterating through every A to Z would suffice for the second part. However, it turned out that my assumption was incorrect, as it oscillates too much.

My spaghetti (Go)lognese solution: https://github.com/bgbernovici/advent-of-code/blob/main/Go/2023/day7/day7.go

Though it is quite fast, the combined running time of both parts is only 5ms.

Java is so ingrained in my mind that even when I am using Rust, I feel like I am not utilizing the idiomatic facilities provided by the language, but rather some form of Java-esque Rust.

I had to Go Swiftly through the first day of Advent of Code 2023. Below you can find my solutions in both Go and Swift:

My endeavour into #Swift programming language on #Windows culminated with a word guessing game. Had a lot of fun building this. If you are wondering why the text looks so strange, it's because it doesn't render fonts. Letters are manually crafted using lines and Bezier curves.
