Day 2: Cube Conundrum


Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • Code block support is not fully rolled out yet but likely will be in the middle of the event. Try to share solutions as both code blocks and using something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ or pastebin (code blocks to future proof it for when 0.19 comes out and since code blocks currently function in some apps and some instances as well if they are running a 0.19 beta)

    Found a C per-char solution, that is, no lines, splitting, lookahead, etc. It wasn’t even necessary to keep match lengths for the color names because they all have unique characters, e.g. ‘b’ only occurs in “blue” so then you can attribute the count to that color.

    int main()
    {
    	int p1=0,p2=0, id=1,num=0, r=0,g=0,b=0, c;
    
    	while ((c = getchar()) != EOF)
    		if (c==',' || c==';' || c==':') num = 0; else
    		if (c>='0' && c<='9') num = num*10 + c-'0'; else
    		if (c=='d') r = MAX(r, num); else
    		if (c=='g') g = MAX(g, num); else
    		if (c=='b') b = MAX(b, num); else
    		if (c=='\n') {
    			p1 += (r<=12 && g<=13 && b<=14) * id;
    			p2 += r*g*b;
    			r=g=b=0; id++;
    		}
    
    	printf("%d %d\n", p1, p2);
    	return 0;
    }
    

    Golfed:

    c,p,P,i,n,r,g,b;main(){while(~
    (c=getchar()))c==44|c==58|59==
    c?n=0:c>47&c<58?n=n*10+c-48:98
    ==c?b=b>n?b:n:c=='d'?r=r>n?r:n
    :c=='g'?g=g>n?g:n:10==c?p+=++i
    *(r<13&g<14&b<15),P+=r*g*b,r=g
    =b=0:0;printf("%d %d\n",p,P);}

    Not too tricky today. Part 2 wasn’t as big of a curveball as yesterday thankfully. I don’t think it’s the cleanest code I’ve ever written, but hey - the whole point of this is to get better at Rust, so I’ll definitely be learning as I go, and coming back at the end to clean a lot of these up. I think for this one I’d like to look into a parsing crate like nom to clean up all the spliting and unwrapping in the two from() methods.

    https://github.com/capitalpb/advent_of_code_2023/blob/main/src/solvers/day02.rs

    #[derive(Debug)]
    struct Hand {
        blue: usize,
        green: usize,
        red: usize,
    }
    
    impl Hand {
        fn from(input: &str) -> Hand {
            let mut hand = Hand {
                blue: 0,
                green: 0,
                red: 0,
            };
    
            for color in input.split(", ") {
                let color = color.split_once(' ').unwrap();
                match color.1 {
                    "blue" => hand.blue = color.0.parse::().unwrap(),
                    "green" => hand.green = color.0.parse::().unwrap(),
                    "red" => hand.red = color.0.parse::().unwrap(),
                    _ => unreachable!("malformed input"),
                }
            }
    
            hand
        }
    }
    
    #[derive(Debug)]

            let (id, hands) = input.split_once(": ").unwrap();
            let id = id.split_once(" ").unwrap().1.parse::().unwrap();
            let hands = hands.split("; ").map(Hand::from).collect();

    This was mostly straightforward… basically just parsing input. Here are my condensed solutions in Python

    Part 1
    Game = dict[str, int]
    
    RED_MAX   = 12
    GREEN_MAX = 13
    BLUE_MAX  = 14
    
    def read_game(stream=sys.stdin) -> Game:
        try:
            game_string, cubes_string = stream.readline().split(':')
        except ValueError:
            return {}
    
        game: Game = defaultdict(int)
        game['id'] = int(game_string.split()[-1])
    
        for cubes in cubes_string.split(';'):
            for cube in cubes.split(','):
                count, color = cube.split()
                game[color] = max(game[color], int(count))
    
        return game
    
    def read_games(stream=sys.stdin) -> Iterator[Game]:
        while game := read_game(stream):
            yield game
    
    def is_valid_game(game: Game) -> bool:
        return all([
            game['red']   &lt;= RED_MAX,
            game['green'] &lt;= GREEN_MAX,
            game['blue']  &lt;= BLUE_MAX,
        ])
    
    def main(stream=sys.stdin) -> None:
        valid_games = filter(is_valid_game, read_games(stream))
        sum_of_ids  = sum(game['id'] for game in valid_games)
        print(sum_of_ids)
    
    Part 2

    For the second part, the main parsing remainded the same. I just had to change what I did with the games I read.

    def power(game: Game) -> int:
        return game['red'] * game['green'] * game['blue']
    
    def main(stream=sys.stdin) -> None:
        sum_of_sets = sum(power(game) for game in read_games(stream))
        print(sum_of_sets)

    I had some time, so here’s a terrible solution in Uiua (Run it here) :

    Lim ← [14 13 12]
    {"Game 1: 3 blue, 4 red; 1 red, 2 green, 6 blue; 2 green"
     "Game 2: 1 blue, 2 green; 3 green, 4 blue, 1 red; 1 green, 1 blue"
     "Game 3: 8 green, 6 blue, 20 red; 5 blue, 4 red, 13 green; 5 green, 1 red"
     "Game 4: 1 green, 3 red, 6 blue; 3 green, 6 red; 3 green, 15 blue, 14 red"
     "Game 5: 6 red, 1 blue, 3 green; 2 blue, 1 red, 2 green"}
    
    LtoDec ← ∧(+ ×10:) :0
    StoDec ← LtoDec▽≥0. ▽≤9. -@0
    FilterMax! ← /↥≡(StoDec⊢↙ ¯1)⊔⊏⊚≡(/×^1⊢).⊔
    # Build 'map' of draws for each game
    ∵(□≡(∵(⬚@\s↙2 ⊔) ⇌) ↯¯1_2 ↘ 2⊜□≠@\s . ⊔)
    # Only need the max for each colour
    ≡(⊂⊂⊃⊃(FilterMax!(="bl")) (FilterMax!(="gr")) (FilterMax!(="re")))
    # part 1 - Compare against limits, and sum game numbers
    /+▽:+1⇡⧻. ≡(/×≤0-Lim).
    # part 2 - Multiply the maxes in each game and then sum.

    Was pretty simple in Python with a regex to get the game number, and then the count of color. for part 2 instead of returning true/false whether the game is valid, you just max the count per color. No traps like in the first one, that I’ve seen, so it was surprisingly easy

    def process_game(line: str):
        game_id = int(re.findall(r'game (\d+)*', line)[0])
    
        colon_idx = line.index(":")
        draws = line[colon_idx+1:].split(";")
        # print(draws)
        
        if is_game_valid(draws):
            # print("Game %d is possible"%game_id)
            return game_id
        return 0
    
                
    def is_game_valid(draws: list):
        for draw in draws:
            red = get_nr_of_in_draw(draw, 'red')
            if red > MAX_RED:
                return False
            
            green = get_nr_of_in_draw(draw, 'green')
            if green > MAX_GREEN:
                return False
            
            blue = get_nr_of_in_draw(draw, 'blue')
            if blue > MAX_BLUE:
                return False    
        return True
            
                
    def get_nr_of_in_draw(draw: str, color: str):
        if color in draw:
            nr = re.findall(r'(\d+) '+color, draw)
            return int(nr[0])
        return 0
    
    
    # f = open("input.txt", "r")
    f = open("input_real.txt", "r")

    Rust (Rank 7421/6311) (Time after start 00:32:27/00:35:35)

    Extremely easy part 2 today, I would say easier than part 1 but they share the same sort of framework

    Code Block

    (Note lemmy removed some characters, code link shows them all)

    use std::fs;

    Done in C# Input parsing done with a mixture of splits and Regex (no idea why everyone hates it?) capture groups.

    I have overbuilt for both days, but not tripped on any of the ‘traps’ in the input data - generally expecting the input to be worse than it is… too used to actual data from users

    Input Parsing (common)

    public class Day2RoundInput { private Regex gameNumRegex = new Regex(“[a-z]* ([0-9]*)”, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

        public Day2RoundInput(string gameString)
        {
            var colonSplit = gameString.Trim().Split(':', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
            var match = gameNumRegex.Match(colonSplit[0].Trim());
            var gameNumberString = match.Groups[1].Value;
            GameNumber = int.Parse(gameNumberString.Trim());
    
            HandfulsOfCubes = new List();
            var roundsSplit = colonSplit[1].Trim().Split(';', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
            foreach (var round in roundsSplit)
            {
                HandfulsOfCubes.Add(new HandfulCubes(round));
            }
        }
        public int GameNumber { get; set; }
    
        public List HandfulsOfCubes { get; set; }
    
        public class HandfulCubes

                {
                    var matches = colourRegex.Matches(colour.Trim());
    
                    foreach (Match match in matches)

    Did mine in Odin. Found this day’s to be super easy, most of the challenge was just parsing.
