--- Day 23: Opening the Turing Lock ---
|
||||
|
||||
Little Jane Marie just got her very first computer for Christmas from some unknown benefactor.
|
||||
It comes with instructions and an example program, but the computer itself seems to be
|
||||
malfunctioning. She's curious what the program does, and would like you to help her run it.
|
||||
|
||||
The manual explains that the computer supports two registers and six instructions (truly, it
|
||||
goes on to remind the reader, a state-of-the-art technology). The registers are named a and b,
|
||||
can hold any non-negative integer, and begin with a value of 0. The instructions are as
|
||||
follows:
|
||||
|
||||
• hlf r sets register r to half its current value, then continues with the next instruction.
|
||||
• tpl r sets register r to triple its current value, then continues with the next
|
||||
instruction.
|
||||
• inc r increments register r, adding 1 to it, then continues with the next instruction.
|
||||
• jmp offset is a jump; it continues with the instruction offset away relative to itself.
|
||||
• jie r, offset is like jmp, but only jumps if register r is even ("jump if even").
|
||||
• jio r, offset is like jmp, but only jumps if register r is 1 ("jump if one", not odd).
|
||||
|
||||
All three jump instructions work with an offset relative to that instruction. The offset is
|
||||
always written with a prefix + or - to indicate the direction of the jump (forward or
|
||||
backward, respectively). For example, jmp +1 would simply continue with the next instruction,
|
||||
while jmp +0 would continuously jump back to itself forever.
|
||||
|
||||
The program exits when it tries to run an instruction beyond the ones defined.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, this program sets a to 2, because the jio instruction causes it to skip the tpl
|
||||
instruction:
|
||||
|
||||
inc a
|
||||
jio a, +2
|
||||
tpl a
|
||||
inc a
|
||||
|
||||
What is the value in register b when the program in your puzzle input is finished executing?
|
||||
|
||||
Your puzzle answer was 255.
|
||||
|
||||
The first half of this puzzle is complete! It provides one gold star: *
|
||||
|
||||
--- Part Two ---
|
||||
|
||||
The unknown benefactor is very thankful for releasi-- er, helping little Jane Marie with her
|
||||
computer. Definitely not to distract you, what is the value in register b after the program is
|
||||
finished executing if register a starts as 1 instead?
|
||||
|
||||
Although it hasn't changed, you can still get your puzzle input.
