Day 8: Haunted Wasteland
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)
- Code block support is not fully rolled out yet but likely will be in the middle of the event. Try to share solutions as both code blocks and using something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ , pastebin, or github (code blocks to future proof it for when 0.19 comes out and since code blocks currently function in some apps and some instances as well if they are running a 0.19 beta)

I don’t think it will explode the runtime. If you have multiple feasible values for
eper ghost, you just need to find a combination ofe_isuch thate_1 = e_2 = ... = e_K (mod gcd(c_1, c_2, ... c_K)), which is just an intersection ofKsets of at mostI*Nelements.
