It’s with mixed feelings that I post my final solution for 2018.
On the one hand, I can go back to sleep when I wake up at five in the morning. On the other hand, I will miss the excitement of coding a solution, learning some more Elixir in the process, and getting my stars.
Merry Christmas!

My solution is here. Instead of using digraph, I just implemented a naive greedy recursion.
I still have to do the second part of day 23, so I’ll enjoy AoC a bit longer
I had fun solving these challenges and comparing solutions with others. Learned a few new things in the process (like summed area table), and exercised my brain. Looking forward to the next edition!
Merry Christmas!
