Advent of Code, 2021

Advent of Code - 2021

Some solutions for Advent of Code, 2021.

The ambitions for the event ended up as:

• Keep pace, solve both parts of the daily puzzle on the day it is posted.
• Set a time box of max 1 hour per day.
• Try to make parallel rather than sequential solutions.
• Have some fun

I also had some other ambitions that I partially gave up on:

• Each day is solved in a language different from the previous day, no language must be used more than twice during the event.
• Each day is solved in two different languages.
• Stream discussion of some solutions a couple of times per week during the event.
• Find somebody to discuss solutions with. (Some students where nice and let me join their Discord server.)

See my notes for a log of reflections for the daily puzzles (contains spoilers).

I have tried to leave my first implementations as they where during the event. But for some days I've added alternative (usually improved) solutions, or implementations in different languages.
