In 16-bit real mode assembly, as a hybrid DOS .COM program and BIOS-bootable disk image. With bonus palette animations! I had the hybrid thing going on before (see the repo), but this is the first time getting something animated.

If took more code to animate this than it did to solve the problem...
Looks very nice for the test data:
And...okay...for the live data:
Day 7 - Colourised, single image.
Day 7 (zoom to full screen): https://lgbt.earth/i/web/post/903381501524320591
I can probably improve this a lot, but I was afraid I'll be too lazy after getting this far, so posting as is. Still, lmk if you have any suggestions :)
The graph of Day 11, created with very little effort using the dot utility of graphviz. Because of a stupid parsing error I ended up with a cyclic graph, so this visualization helped in debugging.

Getting pretty close to having written my own game renderer, only slower and worse :D
Apparently this is wrong. Not sure what I'm missing here. correct, my code was borked I guess (maybe an overflow or something?).
I know I'm late, but I'd thought, I'd share some of my day 12 visualizations I wanted to see.
Here's my shapes with symmetries:
Here's some of the solutions found in a greedy manner:
The visuals are terminal based, for simple cells I used two spaces with colored background and for solutions I also used braille symbols to better delineate distinctions between cells.
Squeezing all spaces out of the grid (and plotting at right-angles to the other visualisation here) gives this evil shape, which will doubtless haunt my dreams tonight.
I made a quick visualisation of my input for day 9 with matplotlib. Still haven't solved part 2 though.
