Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://blocks.programming.dev if you prefer sending it through a URL

Uiua

Uiua is still developing very quickly, and this code uses the experimental tuples function, hence the initial directive.

Try it Live!

# Experimental!
"7 6 4 2 1\n1 2 7 8 9\n9 7 6 2 1\n1 3 2 4 5\n8 6 4 4 1\n1 3 6 7 9"
⊜(⊜⋕⊸≠@\s)⊸≠@\n # Partition at \n, then at space, parse ints.

IsSorted ← +⊃(≍⇌⍆.|≍⍆.)        # Compare with sorted array.
IsSmall  ← /××⊃(>0|<4)⌵↘¯1-↻1. # Copy offset by 1, check diffs.
IsSafe   ← ×⊃IsSmall IsSorted  # Safe if Small steps and Ordered.
IsSafer  ← ±/+≡IsSafe ⧅<-1⧻.   # Choose 4 from 5, check again.

&p/+≡IsSafe .            # Part1 : Is each row safe?
&p/+≡(±+⊃IsSafe IsSafer) # Part2 : Is it safe or safer?

How do you write this, not conceptually but physically. Do you have a char picker open at all times?

I like to assume people using array programming languages just have a crystal ball that they use to call upon magic runes on the screen
