Viml

I think viml is a very fun language, i like weird languages lol, so this year im doing it in viml while trying to use as many of the original ed/ex commands as i can (:d, :p, :a, :g, ...)

Part 1

!cp ./puzzle1 ./puzzle1.editing
e ./puzzle1.editing

1,$sort
let row1 = []

g/^\d/let row1 = add(row1, str2nr(expand("<cword>"))) | norm 0dw
1d
1,$sort
g/^\d/execute 'norm cc' .. string(abs(expand("<cword>") - row1[line('.') - 1]))

$a|---ANSWER---
0
.
1,$-1g/^\d/call setline("$", str2nr(getline("$")) + str2nr(expand("<cword>")))

Part 2

read ./puzzle1

let cnt = 0
g/^\d/let cnt += expand("<cword>") *
            \ searchcount(#{pattern: '\s\+' .. expand("<cword>")}).total

echo cnt .. "\n"
