    The event has already started at December 1st (obviously :-),
    but I'd nevertheless like to draw your attention to it:

    The first 6 days were easily solvable by using TCL.

    Have fun!

    Can anybody help me with day 7? Just practising with last year's,
    thought I might try this year's when it comes out. Hence necropost. I
    didn't have much trouble with the first 6 either. And managed 16 in
    2020. Too old to learn functional language nonsense if I can solve it
    in tcl.

    The solution certainly involves nested dictionaries but I'm stumped on
    the best design

    Forget about it. Turns out the trick is using glob patterns in dict key, something I'd forgotten about.

    Hmm, I hadn't used dict glob, but regexps to scan the lines.
    If you're interested -> mail me, then I would share my solution...
