Part one went fairly fast, but spent quite some time on getting part two right. I settled on the approach of just iterating over the grid and using a boolean to see if I had to count elements or not. However, I had some issues figuring out when to swap, this post by /u/rogual helped me figure it out. After that I lost quite some time on an error that only occurred with my input, not with the example input. It turned out that my loop (which I take form my p1 solution) didn't include the start node, which caused all sorts of counting issues.

My Scala solution – to be cleaned up.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! Day 18 was pretty straightforward, though it presents some interesting choices in how to represent the data -- choices I'm not sure I made optimally.

And I've solved all of the Advent of Code problems so far this year, which is utterly unimportant but still brings me joy.

If you'd enjoy some coding challenges, advent of code (https://adventofcode.com/) is currently going on.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! In Day 17 we got to (sort of) play Tetris. Five different Tetris-like shapes fall into a pit, moved left or right on each step according to the input. The first task is to see how high this stack will grow after 2022 blocks have been dropped in.
