AoC 2020 - Day 9: Encoding Error

This one was a bit… disappointing.
The first part was OK. I did not try to brute force it, but it still looks like maintaining a round robin of pre-calculated values was the correct choice.
The problem is with the second part: it looked scary, so I tried to analyze the data, but with no luck. Eventually, I tried to brute-force it and it worked, with the most naive solution possible.

Sometimes, the most naive solutions are good enough. Maybe that’s the learning for today.
