part 1 yay, I'm off the mark
part 2... WHAT!!!
@manishlad @neil_vass
Yep. regex didn't do what I thought it would do. (Stupid "twone"!)
@OmegaLimit @neil_vass I ended up not using regex, used direct replacement instead
@manishlad @OmegaLimit
I got regex to do it, learned about features I've never used before!

I flipped the string and searched for the number names written backwards.

@OmegaLimit @neil_vass I did do it all with regex on day 2 though
@manishlad @neil_vass regex made day 2 so much easier. The input was very close to a format that #GNUOctave would easily read, but not close enough. I spent most of my time just getting the textscan function to work.
