This one would be up @CassC street.

 

Went for the plain old iterative macro for part 2...

This was a fun one. Took me a little bit to figure out how to create coordinates for the hex grid, but after that was sorted both parts were similar to previous days.

I think my approach is similar to those above. I spent quite some time debugging why a join was not returning the correct items for numbers that was set as decimals 19.6 I couldn't figure out why so just rescaled my coordinates a little bit.

The decimals were throwing me off, so I changed the step from 1, sqrt(3) to (1, 173), funny shaped hex I imagine, but works
