Advents of Code (programming challenges)

[DavidM]

It's a busy time of the year to be working on these puzzles...

I'm currently working on day 8 (part 2). Part 1 was quite simple, but the processing time required for part 2 has me thinking that I'll have to create a Saturn code object for the testing subroutine. I think with that it will process in a reasonable timeframe, but I just need to find the time to write a chunk of Saturn code.

I've been able to use the 50g for all of 2022 days 1-8. I don't think I'll be able to maintain that, though. I also started working through 2021's puzzles, and have gotten through day 8 as well. Had to use an alternative for day 5, but all the rest were done on the 50g.

At the current rate, I might be able to get through this year's puzzles by 2030 or so. No promises on sticking with the 50g, though. I think I'm borderline as it is with being able to do the current ones in RPL. Some parts are amazingly simple, but then with others I run out of memory or time with the given data.
