Day 7: Bridge Repair

Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

Could probably go much faster if I kept track of calculations to not repeat, but 4 seconds for part 2 on my old laptop is good enough for me. Also, not really a big change from part 1 to part 2.

Part 1 and 2

(defstruct calibration result inputs)

(defun p1-process-line (line)
  (let ((parts (str:words line)))
    (make-calibration :result (parse-integer (car parts) :junk-allowed t)
                      :inputs (mapcar #'parse-integer (cdr parts)))))

(defun apply-opperators (c opps)
  (let ((accum (car (calibration-inputs c))))
  (loop for o in opps
        for v in (cdr (calibration-inputs c))
        until (> accum (calibration-result c))
        if (eql o 'ADD)
          do (setf accum (+ accum v))
        else if (eql o 'MUL)
          do (setf accum (* accum v))
        else
          do (setf accum (+ v (* accum (expt 10 (1+ (floor (log v 10)))))))
        finally (return accum)
        )))

(defun generate-operators (item-count)
  (labels ((g-rec (c results)
             (if (< c 1)
                 results
                 (g-rec (1- c) (loop for r in results
                                     collect (cons 'ADD r)
                                     collect (cons 'MUL r))))))
    (g-rec (1- item-count) '((ADD) (MUL)))))

(defun generate-ops-hash (c gen-ops)
  (let ((h (make-hash-table)))
    (dotimes (x c)
      (setf (gethash (+ 2 x) h) (funcall gen-ops (+ 1 x))))
    h))

(defun validate-calibration (c ops-h)
  (let ((r (calibration-result c))
        (ops (gethash (length (calibration-inputs c)) ops-h)))
    (loop for o in ops
          for v = (apply-opperators c o)
          when (= v r)
            return t)))

(defun run-p1 (file) 
  (let ((calibrations  (read-file file #'p1-process-line))
        (ops (generate-ops-hash 13 #'generate-operators)))
    (loop for c in calibrations
          when (validate-calibration c ops)
            sum (calibration-result c))))

(defun generate-operators-p2 (item-count)
  (labels ((g-rec (c results)
             (if (< c 1)
                 results
                 (g-rec (1- c) (loop for r in results
                                     collect (cons 'ADD r)
                                     collect (cons 'MUL r)
                                     collect (cons 'CAT r))))))
    (g-rec (1- item-count) '((ADD) (MUL) (CAT)))))

(defun run-p2 (file) 
  (let ((calibrations  (read-file file #'p1-process-line))
        (ops (generate-ops-hash 13 #'generate-operators-p2)))
    (loop for c in calibrations
          when (validate-calibration c ops)
            sum (calibration-result c))))
