    Got correct answer for part 1 on first try, but website rejected it. Wasted some time debugging and trying different methods. Only to have the same answer accepted minutes later. =(

    proc isSafe(report: seq[int]): bool =
      let diffs = collect:
        for i, n in report.toOpenArray(1, report.high): n - report[i]
      (diffs.allIt(it > 0) or diffs.allIt(it < 0)) and diffs.allIt(it.abs in 1..3)
    
    proc solve(input: string): AOCSolution[int, int] =
      let lines = input.splitLines()
      var reports: seq[seq[int]]
      for line in lines:
        reports.add line.split(' ').map(parseInt)
    
      for report in reports:
        if report.isSafe():
          inc result.part1
          inc result.part2
        else:
          for t in 0..report.high:
            var mReport = report
            mReport.delete t
            if mReport.isSafe():
              inc result.part2
              break
