    Ranges are always pesky. Lots of off by one errors when I was pulling this one together. It was also the first day I caved and broke out atoms

    clojure solution

      at first I was trying to extend my

      Solution to problem 1

      Which consists of passing a value to a funnel that is the vector whose elements are maps.

      That would mean iterating one-by-one over seed ranges. Obviously this is too slow.

      but then I deviated and started trying to redo the solution to problem 2 from scratch, at one point thinking about using a

      spoiler

      custom tree based solution.

      But my laziness won and I went back to my problem 1 solution and extended it there. Like you, faced off-by-one errors caused by not reading the problem statement properly.
