🎄🎄 Day 11 🎄🎄

How are you all getting on?

[AR2202]

Part 1 was fine, but spent way too much time trying to solve part 2!

Here is my Day 11 Part 1 and Part 2. Part 2 solution takes 20 seconds for 25 blinks and it runs for a long time for 75. I am trying to optimize.

[AR2202]

Well, Mine didn't finish at all, my attempts were either too slow or ran out of memory. Well done for solving it.

[Sowmiya07]

Yea, I have also struggled with the same issue. After lot of time, I was able to finally run 75 blinks in 247ms

[AR2202]

that's impressive.

Sorry I had to post here as there is no discussion created for Day 13. Here is my Day 13 Part 1 solution. Working on Part 2.

Ah nice!
Tried that one in Rust as well, but I have a bug, it works on the example but not the actual input.

UPDATE: I fixed it. It was a problem with numerical precision.
