Day 13: Claw Contraption
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

I have nothing. I hate Diophantine equations. That is all I have to say today.
(edit) I came back to it after a 24 hour break. All that nonsense about scoring multiple results really took me in yesterday.

Well done! I like how you’re just looking for four integers instead of bothering with parsing the rest of the line.
