Sorry for the delay posting this one, Ategon seemed to have it covered, so I forgot :D I will do better.

I started poking at doing a proper lexer/parser, but then I thought about how early in AoC it is and how low the chance is that the second part will require proper parsing.

So therefore; hello regex my old friend, I’ve come to talk with you again.

List<string> instructions = new List<string>();

public void Input(IEnumerable<string> lines)
{
  foreach (var line in lines)
    instructions.AddRange(Regex.Matches(line, @"mul\(\d+,\d+\)|do\(\)|don't\(\)").Select(m => m.Value));
}

public void Part1()
{
  var sum = instructions.Select(mul => Regex.Match(mul, @"(\d+),(\d+)").Groups.Values.Skip(1).Select(g => int.Parse(g.Value))).Select(cc => cc.Aggregate(1, (acc, val) => acc * val)).Sum();
  Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {sum}");
}
public void Part2()
{
  bool enabled = true;
  long sum = 0;
  foreach(var inst in instructions)
  {
    if (inst.StartsWith("don't"))
      enabled = false;
    else if (inst.StartsWith("do"))
      enabled = true;
    else if (enabled)
      sum += Regex.Match(inst, @"(\d+),(\d+)").Groups.Values.Skip(1).Select(g => int.Parse(g.Value)).Aggregate(1, (acc, val) => acc * val);
  }
  Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {sum}");
}

I couldn’t figure it out in haskell, so I went with bash for the first part

Shell

cat example | grep -Eo "mul\([[:digit:]]{1,3},[[:digit:]]{1,3}\)" | cut -d "(" -f 2 | tr -d ")" | tr "," "*" | paste -sd+ | bc

but this wouldn’t rock anymore in the second part, so I had to resort to python for it

Python

import sys

f = "\n".join(sys.stdin.readlines())

f = f.replace("don't()", "\ndon't()\n")
f = f.replace("do()", "\ndo()\n")

import re

enabled = True
muls = []
for line in f.split("\n"):
    if line == "don't()":
        enabled = False
    if line == "do()":
        enabled = True
    if enabled:
        for match in re.finditer(r"mul\((\d{1,3}),(\d{1,3})\)", line):
            muls.append(int(match.group(1)) * int(match.group(2)))
        pass
    pass

print(sum(muls))

Nim

From a first glance it was obviously a regex problem.
I’m using tinyre here instead of stdlib re library just because I’m more familiar with it.

import pkg/tinyre

proc solve(input: string): AOCSolution[int, int] =
  var allow = true
  for match in input.match(reG"mul\(\d+,\d+\)|do\(\)|don't\(\)"):
    if match == "do()": allow = true
    elif match == "don't()": allow = false
    else:
      let pair = match[4..^2].split(',')
      let mult = pair[0].parseInt * pair[1].parseInt
      result.part1 += mult
      if allow: result.part2 += mult

Yay parsers! I’ve gotten quite comfortable writing these with C. Using out pointers arguments for the cursor that are only updated if the match is successful makes for easy bookkeeping.

Rust with nom parser

Decided to give it a go with the nom parser (first time using this crate). Turned out quite nicely. Had some issues with the alt combinator: All alternatives have to return the same type, using a enum to wrap all options did the trick.

use memmap2::Mmap;
use nom::{
    branch::alt, bytes::complete::*, character::complete::*, combinator::map, multi::many_till,
    sequence::tuple, AsBytes, IResult,
};

#[derive(Debug)]
enum Token {
    Do,
    Dont,
    Mul(u64, u64),
}

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    let file = std::fs::File::open("input.txt")?;
    let mmap = unsafe { Mmap::map(&file)? };

    let mut sum_part1 = 0;
    let mut sum_part2 = 0;
    let mut enabled = true;

    let mut cursor = mmap.as_bytes();
    while let Ok(token) = parse(cursor) {
        match token.1 .1 {
            Token::Do => enabled = true,
            Token::Dont => enabled = false,
            Token::Mul(left, right) => {
                let prod = left * right;
                sum_part1 += prod;
                if enabled {
                    sum_part2 += prod;
                }
            }
        }

        cursor = token.0;
    }

    println!("part1: {} part2: {}", sum_part1, sum_part2);

    Ok(())
}

type ParseResult<'a> =
    Result<(&'a [u8], (Vec<char>, Token)), nom::Err<nom::error::Error<&'a [u8]>>>;

fn parse(input: &[u8]) -> ParseResult {
    many_till(
        anychar,
        alt((
            map(doit, |_| Token::Do),
            map(dont, |_| Token::Dont),
            map(mul, |el| Token::Mul(el.2, el.4)),
        )),
    )(input)
}

fn doit(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], &[u8]> {
    tag("do()")(input)
}

fn dont(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], &[u8]> {
    tag("don't()")(input)
}

type ParsedMulResult<'a> = (&'a [u8], &'a [u8], u64, &'a [u8], u64, &'a [u8]);

fn mul(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], ParsedMulResult> {
    tuple((tag("mul"), tag("("), u64, tag(","), u64, tag(")")))(input)
}

Go

Part 1, just find the regex groups, parse to int, and done.

func part1() {
	file, _ := os.Open("input.txt")
	defer file.Close()
	scanner := bufio.NewScanner(file)

	re := regexp.MustCompile(`mul\(([0-9]{1,3}),([0-9]{1,3})\)`)
	product := 0

	for scanner.Scan() {
		line := scanner.Text()
		submatches := re.FindAllStringSubmatch(line, -1)

		for _, s := range submatches {
			a, _ := strconv.Atoi(s[1])
			b, _ := strconv.Atoi(s[2])
			product += (a * b)
		}
	}

	fmt.Println(product)
}

Part 2, not so simple. Ended up doing some weird hack with a map to check if the multiplication was enabled or not. Also instead of finding regex groups I had to find the indices, and then interpret what those mean… Not very readable code I’m afraid

func part2() {
	file, _ := os.Open("input.txt")
	defer file.Close()
	scanner := bufio.NewScanner(file)

	mulRE := regexp.MustCompile(`mul\(([0-9]{1,3}),([0-9]{1,3})\)`)
	doRE := regexp.MustCompile(`do\(\)`)
	dontRE := regexp.MustCompile(`don't\(\)`)
	product := 0
	enabled := true

	for scanner.Scan() {
		line := scanner.Text()
		doIndices := doRE.FindAllStringIndex(line, -1)
		dontIndices := dontRE.FindAllStringIndex(line, -1)
		mulSubIndices := mulRE.FindAllStringSubmatchIndex(line, -1)

		mapIndices := make(map[int]string)
		for _, do := range doIndices {
			mapIndices[do[0]] = "do"
		}
		for _, dont := range dontIndices {
			mapIndices[dont[0]] = "dont"
		}
		for _, mul := range mulSubIndices {
			mapIndices[mul[0]] = "mul"
		}

		nextMatch := 0

		for i := 0; i < len(line); i++ {
			val, ok := mapIndices[i]
			if ok && val == "do" {
				enabled = true
			} else if ok && val == "dont" {
				enabled = false
			} else if ok && val == "mul" {
				if enabled {
					match := mulSubIndices[nextMatch]
					a, _ := strconv.Atoi(string(line[match[2]:match[3]]))
					b, _ := strconv.Atoi(string(line[match[4]:match[5]]))
					product += (a * b)
				}
				nextMatch++
			}
		}
	}

	fmt.Println(product)
}

We can take advantage of the manageable size of the input to avoid explicit looping and mutable state; instead, construct vectors which give, for each character position in the input, the position of the most recent do() and most recent don't(); for part 2 a multiplication is enabled if the position of the most recent do() (counting start of input as 0) is greater than that of the most recent don't() (counting start of input as minus infinity).
