Is a yearly advent calendar of code puzzles created by Eric Wastl
After taking part a couple years in a row I have consolidated my solutions into one repo, some folders for a year therefore have their own READMEs or conventions
All solutions are written by me with no external help or hints other than language references (except where indicated)
I am very lazy though and will resort to plenty of underhanded tricks, hard-coding or hand-calculation in order to get it done
Feel free to browse through my solutions, it should be self-explanatory how to run most of them, most need input data as a file in the same directory
In practice I don't imagine anyone but me running these, only looking and bewondering my massive brain
There is quite a distribution of languages in this repo
For some years I have taken on a particular challenge to make the easier puzzles more fun:
2022: Use a different language or tool every single day, especially aiming to use some for the first time
2023: Same as 2022
2024: All solutions are in C++ (Compiled with MSVC), which I don't have much experience in
2025: No particular challenge :(
2015: Crank out solutions to everything quickly, priority is to get the stars (solved all days over a couple of evenings)
