@kensanata@octodon.social I asked for it and told Eric how to do it and it put it in before my keyboard cooled off
:)

@design_RG Thanks, it's ugly as hell and someone will have to school me some on Python dictionaries to get things right, but it works,... And that's what really counts!

@ihabunek needs backreferences and {} and NOT but it has been a while since I got crazy creative in regex

@JJFlash Thats pretty good, It has been quite some time since i BASIC

@kat I am using Python because I am trying to relearn Python in a more Pythonical way :)

It is unlikely that I will finish, or at least not in a timely fashion. I am getting ready for a 2 week trip to Tahiti without a computer, I am just not sure I can recover from being that far behind. Doesn't mean I can't finish, but maybe not by Christmas :)

Every problem is hard until you do it. Break them down into smaller tasks and solve them bit by bit. Use the smaller inputs he gives in the examples to do step-wise solutions.

@JJFlash I will have to look into that. As it is, I will soon be 2 weeks behind in the AoC because I am going to Tahiti, and I have been slow coming up with puzzles here for
#Toyprogrammingchallenge as well. So there's that :)

I did not solve both with the first try because I got the first one pretty easy, but when the second one came around, I felt the need to rewrite the InCode machine in a cleaner way and I was not happy separating the direct and relative and "output" ones. I guess I am missing a "reference" or "pointer" in my Python repertoire :) But it is working.

@ihabunek that just needs curlies

@schlink@octodon.social Day 5 was kind of fun. Not sure how pythonic my code looks, but what can I say :)

@ihabunek remember that they are sorted, so all duplicates are next to each other. Perhaps if you just count the numbers and look for any with a count of 2

@jg that's why there is git

@georgia there's an app for that

@kgary there is a site called mastodon trunk that has list of users by interests that. Want to be followed. Also post about stuff you like people will find you. Like and follow people who interest you. Welcome

@schlink@octodon.social you are off because it includes all stops including 0,0

Wow, that was intense!

@grainloom Consider using SharpDevelop IC#Code Here it is:

I only wish they had ported to Linux.

@flowless@myasstodon.xyz and might require the same amount of sunscreen.
