Get Inputs

{:ok, puzzle_input} =
  KinoAOC.download_puzzle("2024", "1", System.fetch_env!("LB_SESSION"))

My answer

{left_list, right_list} =
  puzzle_input
  |> String.split("\n")
  |> Enum.map(fn row ->
    row
    |> String.split(" ")
    |> Enum.filter(&(&1 != ""))
    |> Enum.map(&String.to_integer(&1))
  end)
  |> Enum.map(fn [a, b] -> {a, b} end)
  |> Enum.unzip()

Enum.zip(Enum.sort(left_list), Enum.sort(right_list))
|> Enum.map(fn {left, right} -> abs(left - right) end)
|> Enum.sum()
