Use Kernel.apply/2.

Okay, I got the first part up and running successfully.
After factoring the VM from day 2 into its own module, refactoring it a bit, doing bugfixing and then enhencing it, the solution itself for day 5a was pretty straight forward.
I do not have the time anymore to continue on part 2 (haven’t even read it so far) as I have to do some office work. It might become evening until I have the possibility to do side coding again. Therefore I link to the current solution in the work in progress branch:
https://gitlab.com/NobbZ/aoc_ex/blob/19-5/lib/y2019/d5.ex
Also the VM might be interesting;
https://gitlab.com/NobbZ/aoc_ex/blob/19-5/lib/y2019/intcode_vm.ex
PS: The VM is totally unoptimized! The day2 runtimes suffer significantly, though optimizing the VM is not something I could find the time for in the couple of days/weeks…

Pfeww, I had a hard time to find out bugs in my code, but I finally did it …
Here is my solution

I finished part 2 now. Links on master are as follows (purposefully not as a onebox)
- lib/y2019/d5.ex · master · Norbert Melzer / aoc_ex · GitLab
- lib/y2019/intcode_vm.ex · master · Norbert Melzer / aoc_ex · GitLab
I really have to rework how I handle arities and pass the access-modes around, that feels bottlenecky (though measuring might proof me wrong, as always)
Still optimising it, is not yet scheduled.
edit:
Today I considered extracting and enhencing the VM from day 2 the real challenge, not the solving of the actual problem, and I’m really looking forward to follow ups that extend the VM even further!
This is also the reason why I will probably do them on a separate branch, as then the refactoring/enhencing process is easier to follow comapred to have some huge commit on master.

Here’s my Day5 solution
and some tests to capture the output with capture_io/1
I wanted to read the user input from :stdin with IO.gets/1 but the result is a bit messy because to test the most of the functions I had to pass a function that mocks IO.gets/1, returning a value…
@sasajuric nice the queues as user input, really neat! I think I’m going to refactor mine

Here’s mine: advent_of_code_2019/lib/aoc/vm.ex at master · keathley/advent_of_code_2019 · GitHub. My original design was pretty easy to change to support the parameter modes and whatnot so that felt good.
