Haskell

Plenty of scope for making part 2 faster, but I think simple is best here. Forgot to sort the lists in the first part, which pushed me waaay off the leaderboard.

import Data.List

main = do
  [as, bs] <- transpose . map (map read . words) . lines <$> readFile "input01"
  print . sum $ map abs $ zipWith (-) (sort as) (sort bs)
  print . sum $ map (\a -> a * length (filter (== a) bs)) as

Nim

I've got my first sub-1000 rank today (998 for part 2). Yay!
Simple and straightforward challenge, very fitting for 1st day. Gonna enjoy it while it lasts.

proc solve(input: string): AOCSolution[int, int] =
  var l1,l2: seq[int]
  for line in input.splitLines():
    let pair = line.splitWhitespace()
    l1.add parseInt(pair[0])
    l2.add parseInt(pair[1])
  l1.sort()
  l2.sort()

  block p1:
    for i in 0..l1.high:
      result.part1 += abs(l1[i] - l2[i])

  block p2:
    for n in l1:
      result.part2 += n * l2.count(n)

Solution

import { AdventOfCodeSolutionFunction } from "./solutions";

function InstancesOf(sorted_array: Array<number>, value: number) {
    const index = sorted_array.indexOf(value);
    if(index == -1)
        return 0;

    let sum = 1;

    for (let array_index = index + 1; array_index < sorted_array.length; array_index++) {
        if(sorted_array[array_index] != value)
            break;

        sum += 1;
    }

    return sum;
}

export const solution_1: AdventOfCodeSolutionFunction = (input) => {
    const left: Array<number> = [];
    const right: Array<number> = [];

    const lines = input.split("\n");

    for (let index = 0; index < lines.length; index++) {
        const element = lines[index].trim();
        if(!element)
            continue;

        const leftRight = element.split("   ");
        left.push(Number(leftRight[0]));
        right.push(Number(leftRight[1]));
    }

    const numSort = (a: number, b: number) => a - b;
    left.sort(numSort);
    right.sort(numSort);

    let sum = 0;
    for (let index = 0; index < left.length; index++) {
        const leftValue = left[index];
        const rightValue = right[index];

        sum += Math.abs(leftValue - rightValue);
    }

    const part1 = `Part 1: ${sum}`;

    sum = 0;
    for (let index = 0; index < left.length; index++) {
        sum += left[index] * InstancesOf(right, left[index]);
    }

    const part2 = `Part 2: ${sum}`;

    return `${part1}\n${part2}`;
};

Not the most elegant solution but it works. Decided to reuse the array since it is sorted for both sides.

Rust

Right IDs are directly read into a hash map counter.

use std::str::FromStr;
use std::collections::HashMap;

fn part1(input: String) {
    let mut left = Vec::new();
    let mut right = Vec::new();
    for line in input.lines() {
        let mut parts = line.split_whitespace()
            .map(|p| u32::from_str(p).unwrap());
        left.push(parts.next().unwrap());
        right.push(parts.next().unwrap());
    }
    left.sort_unstable();
    right.sort_unstable();
    let diff: u32 = left.iter().zip(right)
        .map(|(l, r)| l.abs_diff(r))
        .sum();
    println!("{diff}");
}

fn part2(input: String) {
    let mut left = Vec::new();
    let mut right: HashMap<u32, u32> = HashMap::new();
    for line in input.lines() {
        let mut parts = line.split_whitespace()
            .map(|p| u32::from_str(p).unwrap());
        left.push(parts.next().unwrap());
        *right.entry(parts.next().unwrap()).or_default() += 1;
    }
    let similar: u32 = left.iter()
        .map(|n| n * right.get(n).copied().unwrap_or_default())
        .sum();
    println!("{similar}");
}

Solution in C

Part 1 is a sort and a quick loop. Part 2 could be efficient with a lookup table but it was practically instant with a simple non-memoized scan so left it that way.

[-] mcmodknower@programming.dev 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

You are using some interesting techniques there. I never imaged you could use the result of == for adding to a counter.

But how did you handle duplicates in part 2?

[-] sjmulder@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

I’m not sure if I understand the question correctly but for every number in the left array I count in the right array. That means duplicate work but shrug πŸ˜…

No πŸ’œ for Kotlin here?

I have another Kotlin (albeit similar) solution:

import kotlin.math.abs

fun main() {

    fun getLists(input: List<String>): Pair<List<Int>, List<Int>> {
        val unsortedPairs = input.map {
            it.split("   ").map { it.toInt() }
        }

        val listA = unsortedPairs.map { it.first() }
        val listB = unsortedPairs.map { it.last() }
        return Pair(listA, listB)
    }

    fun part1(input: List<String>): Int {
        val (listA, listB) = getLists(input)

        return listA.sorted().zip(listB.sorted()).sumOf { abs(it.first - it.second) }
    }

    fun part2(input: List<String>): Int {
        val (listA, listB) = getLists(input)

        return listA.sumOf { number ->
            number * listB.count { it == number }
        }
    }

    // Or read a large test input from the `src/Day01_test.txt` file:
    val testInput = readInput("Day01_test")
    check(part1(testInput) == 11)
    check(part2(testInput) == 31)

    // Read the input from the `src/Day01.txt` file.
    val input = readInput("Day01")
    part1(input).println()
    part2(input).println()
}

It's a bit more compact. (If you take out the part that actually calls the functions on the (test-)input.)

I'm late to the party, as usual. Damned timezones. This year I'm going to tackle with a small handful of languages, but primarily Elixir and Gleam. This is my first time trying this languages in earnest, so expect some terrible, inefficient and totally unidiomatic code!
Here's day one:

  |> Enum.map(fn line ->

  |> Enum.reduce({[], []}, fn [first, second], {list1, list2} ->
    {[first | list1], [second | list2]}
  end)
  |> then(fn {list1, list2} ->
    {Enum.sort(list1), Enum.sort(list2)}
  end)
  |> then(fn {list1, list2} ->
    Enum.zip(list1, list2)
    |> Enum.map(fn {x, y} -> abs(x - y) end)
  end)
  |> Enum.sum()

part_two =

  |> String.split("\n", trim: true)
  |> Enum.map(fn line ->

JavaScript

After writing a procedural to-the-point version in C, tried a JavaScript solution too because it's just perfect for list comprehension. The part 2 search is inefficient but the data size is small.

Code

const fs = require("fs");
const U = require("./util");

const pairs = fs
    .readFileSync(process.argv[2] || process.stdin.fd, "utf8")
    .split("\n")
    .filter(x => x != "")
    .map(x => x.split(/ +/).map(Number));

const ls = pairs.map(x => x[0]); ls.sort();
const rs = pairs.map(x => x[1]); rs.sort();

const p1 = U.sum(ls.map((l, i) => Math.abs(l - rs[i])));
const p2 = U.sum(ls.map(l => l * U.count(rs, l)));

console.log("01:", p1, p2);

Total noob, but it's fun to learn.

{left, right} =
  File.read!("./input.txt")
  |> String.split("\n", trim: true)
  |> Enum.map(fn line ->
    String.split(line)
    |> Enum.map(&String.to_integer/1)
    |> List.to_tuple()
  end)
  |> Enum.unzip()
  |> then(fn {left, right} ->
    {Enum.sort(left), Enum.sort(right)}
  end)

diffs =
  Enum.zip(left, right)
  |> Enum.map(fn {l, r} -> abs(l - r) end)
  |> Enum.sum()

freqs =
  Enum.filter(right, fn r -> r in left end)
  |> Enum.frequencies()

freqsum =
  Enum.map(left, fn n ->
    freq = Map.get(freqs, n, 0)
    n * freq
  end)
  |> Enum.sum()

IO.puts("part 1: #{diffs}")
IO.puts("part 2: #{freqsum}")

python

I didn't realize it was december until this afternoon. I've generally chosen a new or spartan lang to challenge myself, but I'm going easy mode this year with python and just focusing on meeting the requirement.

import aoc

def setup():
    lines = aoc.get_lines(1)
    l = [int(x.split()[0]) for x in lines]
    r = [int(x.split()[1]) for x in lines]
    return (l, r, 0)

def one():
    l, r, acc = setup()
    for p in zip(sorted(l), sorted(r)):
        acc += abs(p[0] - p[1])
    print(acc)

def two():
    l, r, acc = setup()
    for n in l:
        acc += n * r.count(n)
    print(acc)

one()
two()

Python

ids = """<multiline input string>"""
ids = [pair.split(" ") for pair in ids.split("\n")]
left = [int(t[0]) for t in ids]
right = [int(t[-1]) for t in ids]
left.sort()
right.sort()
print(sum(abs(l - r) for l, r in zip(left, right)))

# 2
s = 0
for l in left:
    s += right.count(l) * l
print(s)

Lost a minute because I forgot about abs .-.

TypeScript

This is for part #2 only.

import { readFileSync } from 'fs'

const f = readFileSync('./input.txt', 'utf-8')
const lines = f.split("\n")

let rights = {}
for (const i in lines) {
	if (lines[i] == '') { continue }

	const [, right] = lines[i].split(/\s+/)
	if (rights[right] === undefined) {
		rights[right] = 0
	}

	rights[right]++
}

let ans = 0
for (const i in lines) {
	const [left] = lines[i].split(/\s+/)
	const similarity = rights[left]

	if (similarity) {
		ans += (Number(left) * rights[left])
	}
}

console.dir(ans)

Is it possible to get this more efficient? I would love a way that only required iterating over the list once, but I don't really have the focus to puzzle it out any less than O(2n) (probably more than that, even, if you count reading in the data...).
