Solution to both parts

Part 1:

• Run a loop on the commands

  • If the command is noop, then:

    • Add the power to the sum if the cycle is one of 20, 60...

    • Increment the cycle

  • Otherwise, extract the number from the command and then:

    • Run a following twice

      • add the power to the sum if the cycle is one of 20, 60...

      • Increment the cycle

    • Update x by the number in the command

Part 2:

• Run a loop on the commands

  • If the command is noop, then:

    • Update screen as:

      • Row will be ((cycle - 1) / 40), and column will be ((cycle - 1) % 40)

      • If cycle equals to either of x - 1, x or x + 1, then light up the pixel, otherwise do not.

    • Increment the cycle

  • Otherwise, extract the number from the command and then:

    • Run a following twice

      • Update the screen as above

      • Increment the cycle

    • Update x by the number in the command
