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)

    Dart solution

    Quite straightforward, though there’s a sneaky trap in the test data for those of us who don’t read the rules carefully enough.

    parseLine(String s) {
  var game = s.split(': ');
  var num = int.parse(game.first.split(' ').last);
  var rounds = game.last.split('; ');
  var cubes = [
    for (var (e) in rounds)
      {
        for (var ee in e.split(', '))
          ee.split(' ').last: int.parse(ee.split(' ').first)
      }
  ];
  return MapEntry(num, cubes);
}

/// collects the max of the counts from both maps.
Map merge2(Map a, Map b) => {
      for (var k in {...a.keys, ...b.keys}) k: max(a[k] ?? 0, b[k] ?? 0)
    };

var limit = {"red": 12, "green": 13, "blue": 14};

bool isGood(Map test) =>
    limit.entries.every((e) => (test[e.key] ?? 0) <= e.value);

part1(List lines) => lines
    .map(parseLine)
    .where((e) => e.value.every(isGood))
    .map((e) => e.key)
    .sum;

part2(List lines) => lines
    .map(parseLine)
    .map((e) => e.value.reduce(merge2))
    .map((e) => e.values.reduce((s, t) => s * t))
    .sum;

      What’s that? I didn’t notice anything, perhaps I was lucky.

        Oh, I misread the rules as each game having rounds of draws without replacement and the test data gave the same result for that reading, so when I confidently submitted my answer I got a bit of a surprise.
