Day 4: Scratchcards
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)
- Code block support is not fully rolled out yet but likely will be in the middle of the event. Try to share solutions as both code blocks and using something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ or pastebin (code blocks to future proof it for when 0.19 comes out and since code blocks currently function in some apps and some instances as well if they are running a 0.19 beta)

11:39 – I spent most of the time reading the scoring rules and (as usual) writing a parser…
import Control.Monad
import Data.Bifunctor
import Data.List
readCard :: String -> ([Int], [Int])
readCard =
join bimap (map read) . second tail . break (== "|") . words . tail . dropWhile (/= ':')
countShared = length . uncurry intersect
part1 = sum . map ((\n -> if n > 0 then 2 ^ (n - 1) else 0) . countShared)
part2 = sum . foldr ((\n a -> 1 + sum (take n a) : a) . countShared) []
main = do
input <- map readCard . lines <$> readFile "input04"
print $ part1 input
print $ part2 input
(python) Much easier than day 3.
code
import pathlib
base_dir = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent
filename = base_dir / "day4_input.txt"
with open(base_dir / filename) as f:
lines = f.read().splitlines()
score = 0
extra_cards = [0 for _ in lines]
n_cards = [1 for _ in lines]
for i, line in enumerate(lines):
_, numbers = line.split(":")
winning, have = numbers.split(" | ")
winning_numbers = {int(n) for n in winning.split()}
have_numbers = {int(n) for n in have.split()}
have_winning_numbers = winning_numbers & have_numbers
n_matches = len(have_winning_numbers)
if n_matches:
score += 2 ** (n_matches - 1)
j = i + 1
for _ in range(n_matches):
if j >= len(lines):
break
n_cards[j] += n_cards[i]
j += 1
answer_p1 = score
print(f"{answer_p1=}")
answer_p2 = sum(n_cards)
print(f"{answer_p2=}")
Late as always (actually a day late by UK time).
My solution to this one runs slow, but it gets the job done. I didn’t actually need the CardInfo struct by the time I was done, but couldn’t be bothered to remove it. Previously, it held more than just count.

APL
I’m using this years’ AoC to learn (Dyalog) APL, so this is probably terrible code. I’m happy to receive pointers for improvement, particularly if there is a way to write the same logic with tacit functions or inner/outer products that I missed.

late because I had to skip two days of aoc. Fairly easy
input = File.read("input.txt").lines
sum = 0
winnings = Array.new(input.size) {[1, 0]}
input.each_with_index do |line, i|
card, values = line.split(":")
nums = values.split("|").map(&.split.map(&.to_i))
points = 0
nums[1].each do |num|
if nums[0].includes?(num)
points = points == 0 ? 1 : points * 2
winnings[i][1] += 1
end end
sum += points
end
puts sum
winnings.each_with_index do |card, i|
next if card[1] == 0
(1..card[1]).each do |n|
winnings[i+n][0] += card[0]

puts winnings.sum(&.[0])
