It's day 3, and we've gone from code interpreters to spatial mapping.

Day 3 - The Problem

Looks like someone wasn't very organized when doing the wiring for our fuel management system! While we have the time, let's get in there and untangle the shorting out wires and replace it with its more ideal version.

Part 1 was fairly straightforward, but since I didn't know how to convert this into nice intersecting systems of equation, my brute force solution ran into a heapspace problem.

Part 2 was a bit hairy, because I had to back out one of my optimizations for part 1, which revealed (eventually) an issue with how I was calculating the points it passed through.

Overall I would rate this a fairly difficult day 3!

Dev.to List of Leaderboards

• 120635-5c140b9a - provided by Linda Thompson

If you were part of Ryan Palo's leaderboard last year, you're still a member of that!

If you want me to add your leaderboard code to this page, reply to one of these posts and/or send me a DM containing your code and any theming or notes you’d like me to add. (You can find your private leaderboard code on your "Private Leaderboard" page.)

I'll edit in any leaderboards that people want to post, along with any description for the kinds of people you want to have on it. (My leaderboard is being used as my office's leaderboard.) And if I get something wrong, please call me out or message me and I’ll fix it ASAP.

There's no limit to the number of leaderboards you can join, so there's no problem belonging to a "Beginner" and a language specific one if you want.

Neat Statistics

I'm planning on adding some statistics, but other than "what languages did we see yesterday" does anyone have any ideas?
