My day 9 solution:

defmodule Aoc.Nine do
  def parse(string) do
    string
    |> String.split("\n", trim: true)
    |> Enum.map(fn line ->
      line |> String.split(" ", trim: true) |> Enum.map(&String.to_integer/1)
    end)
  end

  def part_one(input) do
    input
    |> Enum.map(&reduce/1)
    |> Enum.unzip()
    |> elem(0)
    |> Enum.sum()
  end

  def part_two(input) do
    input
    |> Enum.map(&reduce/1)
    |> Enum.unzip()
    |> elem(1)
    |> Enum.sum()
  end

  def reduce([first|_] = list) do
    reduce(list, [], first)
  end

  def reduce([a, b | rest], acc, c) do
    reduce([b | rest], [b - a | acc], c)
  end

  def reduce([a], [b | _] = acc, c) do
    if Enum.all?(acc, &(&1 == a)) do
      {a + b, c - b}
    else
      {new_b, new_c} = reduce(Enum.reverse(acc))
      {a + new_b, c - new_c}
    end
  end
end

input = File.read!("priv/9.txt") |> Aoc.Nine.parse()

input |> Aoc.Nine.part_one() |> IO.inspect(label: "part 1")
input |> Aoc.Nine.part_two() |> IO.inspect(label: "part 2")
