Day 11 Notes

Pretty simple brute force that just iterates the full grid, checking the surrounding
|
|
seats for each case.
|
|
|
|
The main point seemed to be that the state was calculated immediately, which means
|
|
we need to keep the original state around while building the new state.

Added check_visible_in_direction to check the full line of sight, rather than just the
|
|
adjacent squares, and converted occupied_adjacent to occupied_visible to take advantage
|
|
of the new function.

| Overall Thoughts |
|
|
+------------------+
|
|
|
|
Naive, kind of slow brute-force techniques today.
|
|
|
|
Could look into a more efficient solution, but I didn't find the problem that interesting
|
|
so will leave it here.
|
|
|
|
What's a nice way to track/visualise a coordinate grid in Elixir? 🤔
|
|
|
|
What's more interesting is how the input data is generated. How were the inputs generated that they
|
|
would become stable, and what's the relationship between parts 1 and 2 for the same data?
