Not really au-fait with Scala but I would have thought you could pattern-match on the result of swapAndExecute? Almost certainly not correct syntax, but something like

    input.zipWithIndex.collectFirst {
      case (instruction, index) 
         swapAndExecute(input, instruction, index) match {
           case LoopResult(acc, Completed) => acc,
           case other => None,
      }
}.get

Sadly no - collectFirst takes a partial function (in this case PartialFunction[(Instruction, Int), Int]) which I can't wrangle the input collection into. It's a bit of a 'square peg round hole' situation. I should probably craft something myself for such a case.

In your code snippet the case would be satisfied on the first instruction and I would then get a NoSuchElementException.

Ah, annoying, thanks for the explanation!
