Kotlin

A fun and small challenge. First read all locks, transpose their profile and count the #s (-1 for the full row). Then do the same for the keys.

Lastly find all keys for all locks that do not sum to more than 5 with their teeth:

Code


val lockRegex = Regex("""#{5}(\r?\n[.#]{5}){6}""")
val keyRegex = Regex("""([.#]{5}\r?\n){6}#{5}""")

fun parseLocksAndKeys(inputFile: String): Pair<List<IntArray>, List<IntArray>> {
    val input = readResource(inputFile)
    val locks = lockRegex
        .findAll(input)
        .map {
            it
                .value
                .lines()
                .map { line -> line.toList() }
                .transpose()
                .map { line -> line.count { c -> c == '#' } - 1 }
                .toIntArray()
        }
        .toList()

    val keys = keyRegex
        .findAll(input)
        .map {
            it
                .value
                .lines()
                .map { line -> line.toList() }
                .transpose()
                .map { line -> line.count { c -> c == '#' } - 1 }
                .toIntArray()
        }
        .toList()

    return locks to keys
}

fun part1(inputFile: String): String {
    val (locks, keys) = parseLocksAndKeys(inputFile)

    val matches = locks.map { lock ->
        keys.filter { key ->
            for (i in lock.indices) {
                // Make sure the length of the key and lock do not exceed 5
                if (lock[i] + key[i] > 5) {
                    return@filter false
                }
            }
            true
        }
    }
        .flatten()
        .count()

    return matches.toString()
}

Quick and dirty, and slightly tipsy, code.

Happy Christmas everyone!

Thanks to Eric and the team at Advent of Code, to @[email protected] and @[email protected] for giving us somewhere to share and discuss our solutions, and to everyone here for the friendly and supportive community.

See you all next year!

import 'package:collection/collection.dart';
import 'package:more/more.dart';

part1(List<String> lines) {
  var (w, h) = (lines.first.length, lines.indexOf(''));
  var (falsey: keys, truthy: locks) = (lines..insert(0, ''))
      .splitBefore((l) => l.isEmpty)
      .map((g) => [
            for (var x in 0.to(w)) [for (var y in 1.to(h + 1)) g[y][x]]
          ])
      .partition((g) => g[0][0] == '#');
  return keys
      .map((l) => locks.count((k) =>
          0.to(w).every((r) => (l[r] + k[r]).count((e) => e == '#') < 8)))
      .sum;

Nice ending for this year. Lock and key arrays are just added together and all elements must be <= 5. Merry Christmas!

Solution

fn flatten_block(block: Vec<Vec<bool>>) -> [u8; 5] {
    let mut flat = [0; 5];
    for row in &block[1..=5] {
        for x in 0..5 {
            if row[x] {
                flat[x] += 1;
            }
        }
    }
    flat
}

fn parse(input: &str) -> (Vec<[u8; 5]>, Vec<[u8; 5]>) {
    let mut locks = Vec::new();
    let mut keys = Vec::new();
    for block_s in input.split("\n\n") {
        let block: Vec<Vec<bool>> = block_s
            .lines()
            .map(|l| l.bytes().map(|b| b == b'#').collect::<Vec<bool>>())
            .collect();
        assert_eq!(block.len(), 7);
        // Lock
        if block[0].iter().all(|e| *e) {
            locks.push(flatten_block(block));
        } else {
            keys.push(flatten_block(block));
        }
    }
    (locks, keys)
}

fn part1(input: String) {
    let (locks, keys) = parse(&input);
    let mut count = 0u32;
    for l in locks {
        for k in &keys {
            if l.iter().zip(k).map(|(li, ki)| li + ki).all(|sum| sum <= 5) {
                count += 1;
            }
        }
    }
    println!("{count}");

Have a nice christmas if you're still celebrating today, otherwise hope you had a nice evening yesterday.

Spent 10 minutes debugging my solution until I reread and found out they wanted the number of keys that fit, not the ones that overlapped. Reading comprehension is not it tonight.

const [locks, keys] = require('fs').readFileSync(0, 'utf-8').split(/\r?\n\r?\n/g).filter(v => v.length > 0).map(s => s.split(/\r?\n/g).filter(v => v.length > 0)).reduce((acc, s) => {
    const lock = s[0].split('').every(v => v === '#');
    const schema = s.slice(1, -1);
    let rotated = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < schema[0].length; i += 1) {
        for (let j = 0; j < schema.length; j += 1) {
            if (!rotated[i]) rotated[i] = [];
            rotated[i].push(schema[j][i]);
        }
    }
    if (!lock) {
        rotated = rotated.map(v => v.reverse());
    }
    const pinHeights = [];
    for (const row of rotated) {
        const height = row.indexOf('.');
        pinHeights.push(height !== -1 ? height : 5);
    }
    if (lock) {
        acc[0].push(pinHeights);
    } else {
        acc[1].push(pinHeights);
    }
    return acc;
}, [[],[]]);

let fits = 0;
for (const lock of locks) {
    for (const key of keys) {
        let overlapped = false;
        for (let i = 0; i < lock.length; i += 1) {
            if ((lock[i] + key[i]) > 5) {
                overlapped = true;
            }
        }
        if (!overlapped) {
            fits += 1;
        }
    }
}

console.log('Part One', fits);

A total inability to write code correctly today slowed me down a bit, but I got there in the end. Merry Christmas, everyone <3

import Data.Either

import Data.List.Split

readInput = partitionEithers . map readEntry . splitOn [""] . lines
  where
    readEntry ls =
      (if head (head ls) == '#' then Left else Right)
        . map (length . head . group)
        $ transpose ls

main = do
  (locks, keys) <- readInput <$> readFile "input25"
  print . length $ filter (and . uncurry (zipWith (<=))) ((,) <$> locks <*> keys)
