(*The captcha requires you to review a sequence of digits (your puzzle input) and*)
|
|
(*find the sum of all digits that match the next digit in the list. The list is*)
|
|
(*circular, so the digit after the last digit is the first digit in the list.*)
|
|
|
|
(*For example:*)
|
|
(*1122 produces a sum of 3 (1 + 2) because the first digit (1) matches the*)
|
|
(*second digit and the third digit (2) matches the fourth digit.*)
|
|
(*1111 produces 4 because each digit (all 1) matches the next.*)
|
|
(*1234 produces 0 because no digit matches the next.*)
|
|
(*91212129 produces 9 because the only digit that matches the next one is the*)
|
|
(*last digit, 9.*)
|
|
|
|
(*Now, instead of considering the next digit, it wants you to consider the digit halfway around the circular list. That is, if your list contains 10 items, only include a digit in your sum if the digit 10/2 = 5 steps forward matches it. Fortunately, your list has an even number of elements.*)
|
|
|
|
(*For example:*)
|
|
|
|
(*1212 produces 6: the list contains 4 items, and all four digits match the digit 2 items ahead.*)
|
|
(*1221 produces 0, because every comparison is between a 1 and a 2.*)
|
|
(*123425 produces 4, because both 2s match each other, but no other digit has a match.*)
|
|
(*123123 produces 12.*)
|
|
(*12131415 produces 4.*)
