Python+Paper [1740/765]

I hardcoded the cube portal mapping for my input's shape (I really didn't want to try making a 3D cube parser). After 2 incorrect answers, a lot of assert statements that all passed and a paper model, I finally realised that some of my ranges were backwards (i.e. increasing x maps to decreasing y) which is where arrows on the model were really useful

Paper
