Python my ugliest solution this year! Kill me 🤮

On github

Python https://github.com/fridokus/advent-of-code/blob/master/2021/7.py

Python 3

Python 3 solved second part by inspection first but decided to implement it later in code

I'm doing it in Lazarus/Free Pascal again.

Free Pascal - 2251/1744 34.5 seconds runtime No objects, no recursion After brute forcing part 1, I stared at part 2 until I though only handling the different values of X,Y,Z and letting the grid represent variable size cubes.. only to hit memory size limits anyway... and then I learned how to use BITPACKED array, and was able to eventually brute force part 2. Whew!
