Otherwise, the main way I solved this was with a flat list of tokens rather than a truly nested structure. This was very similar to last year's Day 18, which I also solved in a similar manner.

Code can be found in this repo.

First 2D one! Got to reuse my InfiniteGrid class, which made this much easier.

Mine only took about 2 minutes when I originally recorded it. I've since added some optimizations to my Intcode computer, and re-running my original program with the optimized computer now runs in about 45 seconds. 😁

Here is my solution in JS, which also has a long comment explaining the main iterative loop.

Your solution is very similar to mine, and I too found that using an Array of a set size was way faster than an ordinary Object. I believe it has to resizing the array / object.

Main code for part two here, with comments, and full code for all parts found here.

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.

My Scala solution.

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.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! Day 16 was... how to put this?
