Advent of Code

As a warmup for this year's Advent of Code, I'm re-reading and posting my solutions to last year's challenges. You can read, run and edit today's solution by following the post link.

Today we were given the output of a set of sensors recording the locations of their nearest beacons, and were asked to derive more information about those beacons. This was made much simpler due to the odd way these beacons' signal propagated, involving tracking diagonal lines rather than doing any trig. Part 2 required a bit of lateral thinking to avoid an overly-slow solution.
