@gavin @F04118F yup! thats a link to a 2019 AoC, but here's my video for day 1 this year https://www.youtube.com/live/P/_3rUzAN0vw
the code is here: https://github.com/ellyxir/advent/_of/_code/tree/main/2024/nix/day01
i looked at your solution, good work!
Your code looks awesome, I'm definitely going to steal some ideas from that, especially the
lib.pipereally cleans up a lot of unnecessary bindings I did.Doing a
with import ./utils.nixis also a lot cleaner than nesting let statements.@F04118F which I promptly did away with because I couldnβt be arsed today lol
Nix regex sucks. Is there any package with a reasonable regex matchAll?
@F04118F if itβs for todays advent of code, I used split and it worked fine. See my live steam on YouTube or my GitHub .
Somehow I completely missed that split can do match groups.. Oopsie! I did it in Python today but I did make a completely functional (and way too complicated) algorithm.
Tap for spoiler
The way you handle the do and dont is much cleaner.
@F04118F if i had known about match i probably would have gotten stuck also lol but luckily i used split once before and remembered it :) i made an issue in your github, hope thats ok, just to mention this in case you didnt see it on fedi!
Yeah I was planning on changing the salty README and referencing your comment, thanks for putting the reminder there!
