Not going to push hard on these first days (fever being a reason), so I slept in quite a bit before looking at the problem.
C#
List<int> _LeftList = new List<int>(); List<int> _RightList = new List<int>(); // Fed via File.ReadLines(...).Select(l => l.Trim()) public void Input(IEnumerable<string> lines) { foreach (var line in lines) { var split = line.Split(' ', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).Select(s => int.Parse(s)); _LeftList.Add(split.First()); _RightList.Add(split.Last()); } } public void Part1() { Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {_LeftList.Order().Zip(_RightList.Order()).Select(v => Math.Abs(v.First - v.Second)).Sum()}"); } public void Part2() { Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {_LeftList.Select(l => _RightList.Where(i => i == l).Count() * l).Sum()}"); }
