| The christmas trees I know are really tall, but only in a few columns. So let's test the vertical columns for a few lines that are really long. | ||
| They also have a lot of shorter horizontal lines, so let's also check the rows for a lot of shorter lines. |

Another assumption here is that the tree itself is solid; made up of many robots adjacent to each other. It's not like, an outline of a tree shape.

I don't know how it would be possible to detect that if that was the case. Probably something along the lines of a flood fill but that would cost too much

Agreed, yeah. I meant moreso it's worth being explicit and listing it as an assumption here.

Added section beforehand specifying assumption being made

Hello, you should make sure that the other person who reserved this one doesn't still want to write it. I forgot about this for a week |
No one wrote an article for day 14 (which I kind of understand, it sucked).
I decided to write a new one that SHOULD be followable from someone who doesn't know what the final result will look like.
I want reviewers to think like someone who hasn't seen the Christmas tree output before because it's really important that you don't need to know what it looks like to get to my result.
I also removed my writeup link here.
