    Advent of Code 2021 (by ednl)

    C code. I'm afraid I went a little overboard with double checking everything. Are there even pairs for which no rule exists? If there are, I'm good :) Runs very fast in 180 µs on a Pi 4 @ 1.8 GHz:

    Solutions for problems from AdventOfCode.com (by bhosale-ajay)

    TypeScript, no string manipulation, kept two maps, count of pairs from last step, and count of polymers, took just a counter change for part 2.

    Advent of Code solutions (by mcpower)

    Python, 8/28. Part 1, Part 2. My part 2 turned the input into "a Counter of adjacent pairs of characters", which you need to be careful about because turning that to "a Counter of characters" is not easy - you double-count all characters except for the first and last which cost me an incorrect submission!

    For first part implemented the task logic actually calculating the polymer each iteration. This was slow enough for part 2 so had to scratch my head for a while.

    Made it through all 25 days of Advent of Code for the second time! (by Leftfish)

    I'm not sure what kind of brainfog descended on me this morning. After part 1 I instantly knew I should just count the pairs and update their numbers but somehow couldn't figure out how to do it. It took me almost an hour before it dawned on me that...wait for it...a pair splits into two pairs. After that and some off-by-one debugging I came up with this solution. Defaultdict for the win.

    Some solutions for as much of advent of code 2021 as I can be bothered to do. (by TomHemery)

    C# Github Part two took me some head scratching, got to one off the right answer but ended up needing a pointer from the sub for the trick of initializing the element count and counting additions only. Also I had spoilers before this that part two would be ridiculous after all the lantern fish memes, but I felt I should do the brute force approach for part 1 anyway.

    Trying to solve https://adventofcode.com/ [Moved to: https://github.com/ThePituLegend/advent-of-code] (by ThePituLegend)

    I was stuck on the counting part (after being stuck in the How should I solve the massive string being massive? part hahaha). So I finally came here for some hints, and found your code. And this comment saved the day: # The only new character we've added to the overall string is the new # added element. The quantity is the same as the pair that generated it # For example, 25 ABs will generate 25 new Cs if the rule is AB -> C Actually I'm kinda scary because our codes are fairly similar :p There's some simplifications/contractions/tricks maybe you'll benefit from (even though my code is far from perfect in its tricks): https://github.com/ThePituLegend/advent-of-code-2021/tree/main/day14
