For part 1 it is 35.
For part 2 it is 55
This should be just 35, you can ignore the words that are numbers
First and last number, so loop through the characters, ask is it a letter or a number. Find the first and last number in the string and add the strings together and convert it to a number. So you find a 3,4,5 in the line so find the first in the result is 3 and 5 is the last so it becomes 35.
