I have now, thanks for the tip!
And that's some very compact code! I've only just started with nim, so seeing more nim solutions is a great way to learn π
I'm not doing anything too fancy here, just the first stuff that comes to mind and gets the job done. The filterIt template was pretty handy for part 1, though. I assume at some point in these puzzles I'll have to actually write some types and procedures instead of just using nested loops for everything.
I think it's a pretty cool language overall. I've only used it for one project so far, so there's a bunch that I still don't know. Haven't been able to wrap my head around how macros work, for example, though I've sort of figured out how to write really basic templates.
I looked into the iterators and they are really handy, they remind me of C#'s Linq syntax.
