Finally got to use generate rows again. Brings back memories from last year.

I overthink it.

I almost overcomplicated this one. Turned out pretty straightforward!

My take on this. I was literally freaking out while solving part-2 😅🤣🤣. My 2-tool Tool Golf solution I don't think it can be reduced more.

Happy Analyzing :)
Cheers and have a nice day!

@trung2403 For Tool golf you could probably convert your three text to columns into regex to parse the groups.

I like seeing how @clmc9601 , @atcodedog05 and @trung2403  have solved it in fewer tool, but my brain worked more like @bflick today.

So no where near tool golf, but pleased to have a functioning brain at 5am today!

My best try for Golf is 3 tools for both parts 1 and 2.

Tool Golf = 2!! (No, that's not how I did it the first time, I chose instead to go the long way with several Text to Columns and a lot of confusion about which column was which in my formula comparisons... but I got there pretty quickly, nonetheless 😁)
