Yeah, I couldn’t see a nice approach today so I fell back on an existing Grid class I’ve used in previous years. Having those existing tools helps a lot.
I’m still working on my part 1 😭 string parsing makes me feel so stupid haha. But I’m adamant on coming up with a “nice” solution even if the number of lines aren’t minimal. I’ve got something quite nice at the moment and I anticipate coming in under 100 lines (including whitespace, comments, and formatting).
