Advent of Code 2021 Python Solution: Day 10

I forgot the time of the challenge but still managed to make it done. Stack came to the aid.

Part 1

data,data1=get_data(day=10)


table = {
    ")": 3,
    "]": 57,
    "}": 1197,
    ">": 25137}

pair = {"(":")","{":"}", "[":"]", "<":">"}


corruptions = []
rem = []
for i,r in enumerate(data):
    stack = []
    is_corr=False
    for c in r:
        if c in pair:
            stack.append(pair[c])
        elif stack.pop() != c:
            print(f"Corrupted {c} at row {i}")
            corruptions.append(c)
            is_corr=True
            break
    if is_corr==False and len(stack)>0:
        rem.append(stack)


corr = dict(Counter(corruptions))
sum([table[k]*v for k,v in corr.items()])
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Part 2

mult = {")": 1,
"]": 2,
"}": 3,
">": 4}
all_total=[]
for row in rem:
    s = 0
    for i,c in enumerate(row):
        s+=5**i*mult[c]
    all_total.append(s)
at = sorted(all_total)
at[len(at)//2]
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Why not read more?
