I’ve got a “smart” solution and a really dumb one. I’ll start with the smart one (incomplete but you can infer). I did four different ways to try to get it faster, less memory, etc.

// this is from a nuget package. My Mathy roommate told me this was a topological sort.
// It's also my preferred, since it'd perform better on larger data sets.
return lines
    .AsParallel()
    .Where(line => !IsInOrder(GetSoonestOccurrences(line), aggregateRules))
    .Sum(line => line.StableOrderTopologicallyBy(
            getDependencies: page =>
                aggregateRules.TryGetValue(page, out var mustPreceed) ? mustPreceed.Intersect(line) : Enumerable.Empty<Page>())
        .Middle()
    );

The dumb solution. These comparisons aren’t fully transitive. I can’t believe it works.

public static SortedSet<Page> Sort3(Page[] line,
    Dictionary<Page, System.Collections.Generic.HashSet<Page>> rules)
{
    // how the hell is this working?
    var sorted = new SortedSet<Page>(new Sort3Comparer(rules));
    foreach (var page in line)
        sorted.Add(page);
    return sorted;
}

public static Page[] OrderBy(Page[] line, Dictionary<Page, System.Collections.Generic.HashSet<Page>> rules)
{
    return line.OrderBy(identity, new Sort3Comparer(rules)).ToArray();
}

sealed class Sort3Comparer : IComparer<Page>
{
    private readonly Dictionary<Page, System.Collections.Generic.HashSet<Page>> _rules;

    public Sort3Comparer(Dictionary<Page, System.Collections.Generic.HashSet<Page>> rules) => _rules = rules;

    public int Compare(Page x, Page y)
    {
        if (_rules.TryGetValue(x, out var xrules))
        {
            if (xrules.Contains(y))
                return -1;
        }

        if (_rules.TryGetValue(y, out var yrules))
        {
            if (yrules.Contains(x))
                return 1;
        }

        return 0;
    }
}

This is the first one that caused me some headache because I didn’t read the instructions carefully enough.
I kept trying to create a sorted list for when all available pages were used, which got me stuck in an endless loop.

Another fun part was figuring out to use memberof (∈) instead of find (⌕) in the last line of FindNext. So much time spent on debugging other areas of the code

Rust

Real thinker. Messed around with a couple solutions before this one. The gist is to take all the pairwise comparisons given and record them for easy access in a ranking matrix.

For the sample input, this grid would look like this (I left out all the non-present integers, but it would be a 98 x 98 grid where all the empty spaces are filled with Ordering::Equal):

   13 29 47 53 61 75 97
13  =  >  >  >  >  >  >
29  <  =  >  >  >  >  >
47  <  <  =  <  <  >  >
53  <  <  >  =  >  >  >
61  <  <  >  <  =  >  >
75  <  <  <  <  <  =  >
97  <  <  <  <  <  <  =

I discovered this can’t be used for a total order on the actual puzzle input because there were cycles in the pairs given (see how rust changed sort implementations as of 1.81). I used usize for convenience (I did it with u8 for all the pair values originally, but kept having to cast over and over as usize). Didn’t notice a performance difference, but I’m sure uses a bit more memory.

Also I Liked the simple_grid crate a little better than the grid one. Will have to refactor that out at some point.

use std::{cmp::Ordering, fs::read_to_string};

use simple_grid::Grid;

    let (pair_str, page_str) = (split[0], split[1]);
    let pairs = parse_pairs(pair_str);
    let pages = parse_pages(page_str);
    (pairs, pages)
}

fn parse_pairs(input: &str) -> Vec<Idx> {
    input
        .lines()
        .map(|l| {
            let (a, b) = l.split_once('|').unwrap();
            (a.parse().unwrap(), b.parse().unwrap())
        })
        .collect()
}

fn parse_pages(input: &str) -> Vec<Page> {
    input
        .lines()
        .map(|l| -> Page {
            l.split(",")
                .map(|d| d.parse::<usize>().expect("invalid digit"))
                .collect()
        })

        + 1;
    let mut matrix = Grid::new(max, max, vec![Ordering::Equal; max * max]);
    for (a, b) in pairs {
        matrix.replace_cell((*a, *b), Ordering::Less);
        matrix.replace_cell((*b, *a), Ordering::Greater);
    }
    matrix
}

    pages

            } else {
                None
            }
        })
        .sum()
}

    pages
        .iter_mut()
        .filter(|p| !check_order(p, matrix))
        .map(|v| {
            v.sort_by(|a, b| *matrix.get((*a, *b)).unwrap());
            v[v.len() / 2]
        })
        .sum()
}

fn check_order(page: &[usize], matrix: &Matrix) -> bool {
    page.is_sorted_by(|a, b| *matrix.get((*a, *b)).unwrap() == Ordering::Less)
}

    println!("Part 1: {}", valid_pages(&pages, &matrix));
    println!("Part 2: {}", fix_invalid_pages(&mut pages, &matrix));
}

*Edit: I did try switching to just using std::collections::HashMap, but it was 0.1 ms slower on average than using the simple_grid::Grid… Vec[idx] access is faster maybe?

I thought of doing a sort at first, but dismissed it for some reason, so I came up with this slow and bulky recursive backtracking thing which traverses the rules as a graph until it reaches a depth equal to the given sequence. Not my finest work, but it does solve the puzzle :)

While part 1 was pretty quick, part 2 took me a while to figure something out. I figured that the relation would probably be a total ordering, and obtained the actual order using topological sorting. But it turns out the relation has cycles, so the topological sort must be limited to the elements that actually occur in the lists.

use std::collections::{HashSet, HashMap, VecDeque};

    let (ordering, lists) = input.split_once("\n\n").unwrap();
    let relation = ordering.lines()
        .map(|l| {
            let (a, b) = l.split_once('|').unwrap();
            (a.parse().unwrap(), b.parse().unwrap())
        })
        .collect();
    (relation, parse_lists(lists))
}

    let (ordering, lists) = input.split_once("\n\n").unwrap();
    let mut graph = Vec::new();
    for l in ordering.lines() {
        let (a, b) = l.split_once('|').unwrap();
        let v: u32 = a.parse().unwrap();
        let w: u32 = b.parse().unwrap();
        let new_len = v.max(w) as usize + 1;
        if new_len > graph.len() {
            graph.resize(new_len, Vec::new())
        }
        graph[v as usize].push(w);
    }

No really proud of todays solution. Probably because I started too late today.

I used a dictionary with the numbers that should be in front of any given number. Then I checked if they appear after that number. Part1 check. For part 2 I just hoped for the best that ordering it would work by switching each two problematic entries and it worked.

Kotlin

That was an easy one, once you define a comparator function. (At least when you have a sorting function in your standard-library.) The biggest part was the parsing. lol

import kotlin.text.Regex

fun main() {
    fun part1(input: List<String>): Int = parseInput(input).sumOf { if (it.isCorrectlyOrdered()) it[it.size / 2].pageNumber else 0 }

    fun part2(input: List<String>): Int = parseInput(input).sumOf { if (!it.isCorrectlyOrdered()) it.sorted()[it.size / 2].pageNumber else 0 }

    val testInput = readInput("Day05_test")
    check(part1(testInput) == 143)
    check(part2(testInput) == 123)

    val input = readInput("Day05")
    part1(input).println()
    part2(input).println()
}

fun parseInput(input: List<String>): List<List<Page>> {
    val (orderRulesStrings, pageSequencesStrings) = input.filter { it.isNotEmpty() }.partition { Regex("""\d+\|\d+""").matches(it) }

    val orderRules = orderRulesStrings.map { with(it.split('|')) { this[0].toInt() to this[1].toInt() } }
    val orderRulesX = orderRules.map { it.first }.toSet()
    val pages = orderRulesX.map { pageNumber ->
        val orderClasses = orderRules.filter { it.first == pageNumber }.map { it.second }
        Page(pageNumber, orderClasses)
    }.associateBy { it.pageNumber }

    val pageSequences = pageSequencesStrings.map { sequenceString ->
        sequenceString.split(',').map { pages[it.toInt()] ?: Page(it.toInt(), emptyList()) }
    }

    return pageSequences
}

/*
 * An order class is an equivalence class for every page with the same page to be printed before.
 */
data class Page(val pageNumber: Int, val orderClasses: List<Int>): Comparable<Page> {
    override fun compareTo(other: Page): Int =
        if (other.pageNumber in orderClasses) -1
        else if (pageNumber in other.orderClasses) 1
        else 0
}

fun List<Page>.isCorrectlyOrdered(): Boolean = this == this.sorted()

TypeScript

This one ended up being easier than I thought it was going to be. My algorithm for correcting the incorrect orders needed to be ran multiple times, for some reason

https://github.com/spencersolberg/advent-of-code-2024/tree/main/05

Still in rust, and still inexperienced.

Forgot to make a separate solve for part two, for part one, imagine this without the make_valid function and some slightly different structure changes around the accumulator in babbage().

Used a hash map to track what should be in order, and a few indexed loops to keep track of where I’m at and where to look forward.
