Sorry, I'll try to make this the last Covid post for a few days. I know most of you dislike my Covid tweets (along with my music tweets lol.)
I boiled the thing down to a list of assertions that I could then use as guesswork to derive the key, which ultimately is how I got the answers.
So...Day 18 I worked on a LOT, and I think where I left it it's a brain bug and not a code bug that's stopping me. The example my program is getting wrong I did by hand, and I STILL got it wrong (the same way), so I think I'm misunderstanding the specs. May go back to that later.
So for my second try at an algorithm, I eventually got to something approximating a DFS, except that I would generate child nodes as needed as I was traversing, and then once they were counted, I could abandon them as the traversal continued breadth-wise. But! (3/?)
