Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

    Python

    Execution time: ~<1 millisecond (800 microseconds on my machine)

    Good old school linear algebra from middle school. we can solve this really really fast. With minimal changes from part 1!
