Elias MårtensonAt first I wrote a brute-force solution that I think actually demonstrates the ability for Kap to express these kinds of problems in a simple way.However, the second part showed that I had to approach the solution mathematically, and while the final solution ended up being better in every way (because I didn't brute-force).Below is the solution I came up with. Very straightforward, but doesn't demonstrate why one should use the language (except perhaps showing why having rational arithmetic is a good thing, since using floating point for this would result in rounding errors, I think.<a href="https://codeberg.org/loke/advent-of-code-kap/src/branch/master/advent-of-code-2024/part13.kap" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/loke/advent-of-code-kap/src/branch/master/advent-of-code-2024/part13.kap</a><a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/adventofcode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#adventofcode</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/kap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kap</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/apl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#apl</a>
