# --- Day 1: Report Repair ---
|
||||
|
||||
# After saving Christmas five years in a row, you've decided to take a vacation
|
||||
# at a nice resort on a tropical island. Surely, Christmas will go on without you.
|
||||
|
||||
# The tropical island has its own currency and is entirely cash-only. The gold
|
||||
# coins used there have a little picture of a starfish; the locals just call
|
||||
# them stars. None of the currency exchanges seem to have heard of them, but
|
||||
# somehow, you'll need to find fifty of these coins by the time you arrive so
|
||||
# you can pay the deposit on your room.
|
||||
|
||||
# To save your vacation, you need to get all fifty stars by December 25th.
|
||||
|
||||
# Collect stars by solving puzzles. Two puzzles will be made available on each
|
||||
# day in the Advent calendar; the second puzzle is unlocked when you complete
|
||||
# the first. Each puzzle grants one star. Good luck!
|
||||
|
||||
# Before you leave, the Elves in accounting just need you to fix your expense
|
||||
# report (your puzzle input); apparently, something isn't quite adding up.
|
||||
|
||||
# Specifically, they need you to find the two entries that sum to 2020 and then
|
||||
# multiply those two numbers together.
|
||||
|
||||
# For example, suppose your expense report contained the following:
|
||||
|
||||
# 1721
|
||||
# 979
|
||||
# 366
|
||||
# 299
|
||||
# 675
|
||||
# 1456
|
||||
|
||||
# In this list, the two entries that sum to 2020 are 1721 and 299. Multiplying
|
||||
# them together produces 1721 * 299 = 514579, so the correct answer is 514579.
|
||||
|
||||
# Of course, your expense report is much larger. Find the two entries that sum
|
||||
# to 2020; what do you get if you multiply them together?

||||

numbers = [int(l) for l in f.read().strip().split("\n")]
