Regex gets a lot of hate because of how quickly it can become complicated. Like, if you're doing something simple like checking a pattern, it's pretty easy, but when you start adding in things like capture groups, back references, and more complicated search patterns, it gets really confusing and difficult to follow really quickly.
You know php cli does exists right? And is the default of the language. Also, nginx or apache is not required as you can start a server if you really want a web environment from php directly.
I literally found out your channel yesterday and I already fell in love with your content. I'm also trying to do this challenge but I'm able to code well only in like 4/5 languages.
This is my first year doing Advent of Code, so maybe this is a dumb question, but how do people solve both challenges in 2-3 minutes without cheating somehow? On day 1, someone got the first star in 12 seconds. I can see someone really experienced finishing both in 5-10 minutes, but you can't even read the challenge in 12 seconds!
This year it honestly could just be AI. Like, you're not supposed to do that, but people could setup prompts before hand, copy paste the prompt and their data, and get a solution quickly.
12 seconds seems too fast even for an AI to generate and submit the answer - seems more likely they found an exploit to get the questions (or answers) early
There are few techniques that you can use to solve very fast, like using string parsing libraries and knowing the ins and outs of your language, and basically only reading the sample input/output and guessing what needs to be done. The first day was quite easy as you just needed to get the first digit from one end and you can repeat the same logic by reversing the string. Competitive programmers are really good at these stuffs, so I’m not surprised by the 12 seconds.

And we even have enums and strong typing now! I was reluctant to get on board with strong typing and now i just think that was really dumb of me lol. I thought of PHP's dynamicness as a feature, but not any more ... unless I'm prototyping. It's nice to prototype and not worry about types and stuff.
@@reed6514 Oh, I hopped right on the strong type train. Very happy to see that around. You can still prototype very quickly, but when you go to production you can have the strictness needed for a sane working environment. But even things like match statements coming to PHP was super nice. Used them a lot in Rust and it was so nice when they came to PHP as well. Enums and backed enums are also awesome, but kinda toothless when it's compared to their Rust counterpart. You can't for example build a Result Enum, or an Option Enum because the enums themselves can't carry an arbitrary value of T. They can only be Strings or Ints. This hamstrung their Enums in PHP, but it's still nice to have a saner option for building up interfaces with known types and values.
This regex bit at the end is no joke. You know how many billion dollars companies lost because of regex and how many programs are running in production with regex bombs waiting to explode.
I honestly don't mind regex at all and haven't regretted when I've used it. sure it can grow in complexity quickly when the problem is even the slightest bit tricky, but it can be really nice when the problem is fairly simple
From my experience regex is like recursion: at first it's really confusing and you wonder if it's even worth learning, but once you get the hang of it, it's a very powerful/convenient tool in the odd cases where it's not strictly necessary but is very fast to write and easy to read (for other people that also learned it anyways)
gforth I did the first couple days in that last year. But only after doing it in another language (python) first. The funny thing was forth works by letting you define words, so I defined a handful of words that let me execute the input for 2022 day 1 as a program lol

I'm very confused as to why you have such a strong negative opinion on regular expressions. Do you have a video where you elaborate on that? I've been using regular expressions for years and I've been happier because of it
I didn’t think part one was going to work because I didn’t see you account for the fact that you can have multiple entries for each color. However, it is kind of hard to follow the code on the iPad. And apparently it did work. 😬
I don't think there's anything wrong with regex, though regex is often hard to read. It usually can do with some comments as to what it tries to accomplish or a reference to the work item in a backlog manager. Regex can also have performance issues so sometimes it pays to do things with string manipulation. The input file (unless it was a requirement) could also be in a database, pre split or just as an array in the code if hardcoded isn't a problem, or as a config file with better formatting. When working with a set of rules I usually put this into comments first and then work out the programming steps, sometimes it's a jumble to keep track where you're heading. And using a debugger and stepping through will allow you to quickly spot problems.
It's interesting how stereotypes about php are still stuck in the heads of people. But the most interesting thing is that your code feels old. I get that feeling about c and c++ code a lot. It always feels like it was written about 20 years ago
I'm confused, why is type casting really bad in PHP? What language is really good for type casting? You also don't need to cast a string to an int when the string is a number. "100" + 1 = 101
Actually, you've inspired me yesterday to pick up the AoC challenge, but I modified the rules slightly for my personal usage. I chose randomly languages (with the huge amount of weird ones like Fortran, Ada, Basic or Assembly ARM). It's gonna be fun xD Btw. Rust is my main language and I think you're going to love the simplicity and clarity of doing such challenges :P

I wish you'd stream this a day later so I could watch live after having taken the entire day to solve it myself 😂
There's a lot I don't understand but the few parts I did had me laughing. Awesome! But hasn't PHP improved with Version 8?
Some languages.
Arm Assembly
X68 Assembly
VB6 (for the nostalgia)
C#
F#
I also had Pascal/Delphi and Fortran, but his threats scared me!
Please actually finish this series all way through
The way you code today is 😂 way differenet than yestedary where you had error handling and stuff
I didn’t think part one was going to work because I didn’t see you account for the fact that you can have multiple entries for each color. However, it is kind of hard to follow the code on the iPad. And apparently it did work. 😬
I don't think there's anything wrong with regex, though regex is often hard to read. It usually can do with some comments as to what it tries to accomplish or a reference to the work item in a backlog manager. Regex can also have performance issues so sometimes it pays to do things with string manipulation.
The input file (unless it was a requirement) could also be in a database, pre split or just as an array in the code if hardcoded isn't a problem, or as a config file with better formatting.
When working with a set of rules I usually put this into comments first and then work out the programming steps, sometimes it's a jumble to keep track where you're heading. And using a debugger and stepping through will allow you to quickly spot problems.
the idea of random language is genius, but these challenge need to prove online, not with video editing ❤😂
Is COBOL off the table for suggestions? That would be infotainment at its finest
It's interesting how stereotypes about php are still stuck in the heads of people. But the most interesting thing is that your code feels old. I get that feeling about c and c++ code a lot. It always feels like it was written about 20 years ago
Minecraft Functions to be more specific make a datapack
I never learned grep, can i take your review to mean its still not worth learning?
Language suggestion: [C]
( and you actually have to use object-orientation as much as possible )
I'm confused, why is type casting really bad in PHP? What language is really good for type casting?
You also don't need to cast a string to an int when the string is a number.
"100" + 1 = 101
u know u can call php in command line... ? lol
Nim needs to be on the wheel :)
Actually, you've inspired me yesterday to pick up the AoC challenge, but I modified the rules slightly for my personal usage. I chose randomly languages (with the huge amount of weird ones like Fortran, Ada, Basic or Assembly ARM). It's gonna be fun xD
Btw. Rust is my main language and I think you're going to love the simplicity and clarity of doing such challenges :P
Erlang would be a fun one. But I guess Elixir is close enough.
php is fun, explode, split is better but explode is way more fun
You could have used the php interpreter to get it to work in a terminal, not bother with html.
I prefer an executable script with the php shebang at the top, much more than running php file_name.php
you could’ve write nice php code with print command and running it from console instead of a web server with a bunch of echos br tags 😢
Add Assembly and VBA to the wheel
tbh it's not PHP's fault that you decided to do this without getting info on what errors are throwing
6:08 Pushing the big button for all the "HTML is not a language" folks, there, I see.
Since you've said that Brainfuck and Haskell are banned, I would suggest something that kinda combines them
Mathematical description of turing machine that solves the problem
You didn't have to use html.. you could ran it on the cli. Blaming the language for that is lame. 😂😂😂
