scrapyard VS awesome-advent-of-code

Inspired by a blog post of Nicky Meuleman and his solution for this puzzle: https://github.com/NickyMeuleman/scrapyard/blob/main/advent_of_code/2022/src/day_08.rs I refactored my code and it turned out to be ~7-10 times slower than the initial one (700μs vs. 8ms). But hey, the code looks better now and it's more concise.

If you prefer to go straight to the repo: https://github.com/NickyMeuleman/scrapyard/tree/main/advent_of_code/2022/src

rust Per step, this makes a list of all cucumbers that can move first, then mutates those in the overall map.

Solution in Rust

Rust solution, commented both solutions to clearly explain the used logic.

Rust. The windows() method is really the MVP of the day

Also worth checking out this repo for solutions in any language: https://github.com/Bogdanp/awesome-advent-of-code

This is a good idea, but we already have (at least 1) established list that people are using: https://github.com/Bogdanp/awesome-advent-of-code

What was the most eloquent solution I found on Github and Youtube?

https://github.com/Bogdanp/awesome-advent-of-code Check out this repo for solutions for various languages. Consider adding yours to the C# part of the README

```

I find the above really elegant. It's correct, the special case for "0" is very explicit, and if you try a negative number, Elixir will simply be unable to match the given problem to a function definition (n < 0), which makes more sense than throwing "BadArgument" errors/exceptions.

If you really want to just solve problems, I advise sticking with Python, there's nothing wrong with it. Most languages also provide a lot of functional concepts, I'm sure Python is no exception (with some libraries). Be prepared that functional languages require you to think differently, but it is really fun to do things in a functional way!

Good luck!

I added my repo to Awesome AoC because the other two Dart solutions were not for all days. I'm not sure my code is the best example of Dart code! Is your code available? Maybe you could share it?
