Cool to see another solution in Nim here =)

(0..<record.len).anyIt(record.dup(delete(it)).validate)

That's smart. I haven't thought of using iterators to loop over indexes (except in a for loop).

I got stuck on part 2 trying to check everything inside a single loop, which kept getting more ugly.

Yeah I've thought of simple ways to do this and found none. And looking at the input - it's too easy to bruteforce, especially in compiled lang like Nim.
