Day 15: Part 2

Problem Description

In this part, the goal was to extend the signal processing logic to accommodate additional criteria for evaluation. The new criteria may involve more complex relationships between signals, requiring a more sophisticated approach.

Approach

To tackle this problem, I followed these steps:
1. Reuse Previous Logic: I reused the signal processing logic from Part 1 to maintain consistency.
2. Adjust Processing Criteria: I modified the logic for calculating signal strength to reflect the new criteria. This may involve additional conditions or different calculations.
3. Total Strength Calculation: I iterated through the list of signals again, applying the updated criteria to compute the total strength.
4. Output: Finally, I printed the total strength based on the new criteria.

This approach builds on the previous logic while adding the complexity of the new evaluation criteria.
