Part 1 was fun, essentially a matter of mapping a grid and implementing a function to scan above and below bricks.
Was worried part 2 would either make the grid approach impossible (large numbers) or have combinatory complexity that would necessitate some super efficient dependency table that I don't know about. Luckily that wasn't the case! Phew.
