--- Day 4: High-Entropy Passphrases ---
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A new system policy has been put in place that requires all
|
|
|
|
|
|
accounts to use a passphrase instead of simply a password. A
|
|
|
|
|
|
passphrase consists of a series of words (lowercase letters)
|
|
|
|
|
|
separated by spaces.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To ensure security, a valid passphrase must contain no
|
|
|
|
|
|
duplicate words.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* aa bb cc dd ee is valid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* aa bb cc dd aa is not valid - the word aa appears more
|
|
|
|
|
|
than once.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* aa bb cc dd aaa is valid - aa and aaa count as different
|
|
|
|
|
|
words.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The system's full passphrase list is available as your
|
|
|
|
|
|
puzzle input. How many passphrases are valid?

--- Part Two ---
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For added security, yet another system policy has been put
|
|
|
|
|
|
in place. Now, a valid passphrase must contain no two words
|
|
|
|
|
|
that are anagrams of each other - that is, a passphrase is
|
|
|
|
|
|
invalid if any word's letters can be rearranged to form any
|
|
|
|
|
|
other word in the passphrase.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* abcde fghij is a valid passphrase.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* abcde xyz ecdab is not valid - the letters from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
third word can be rearranged to form the first word.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* a ab abc abd abf abj is a valid passphrase, because all
|
|
|
|
|
|
letters need to be used when forming another word.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* iiii oiii ooii oooi oooo is valid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* oiii ioii iioi iiio is not valid - any of these words
|
|
|
|
|
|
can be rearranged to form any other word.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Under this new system policy, how many passphrases are
|
|
|
|
|
|
valid?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Your puzzle answer was 251.

Both parts of this puzzle are complete! They provide two
|
|
|
|
|
|
gold stars: **
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At this point, you should return to your advent calendar and
|
|
|
|
|
|
try another puzzle.
