A slow week for the StackCal project, I take the time to make some decisions about how I am going to build the project going forward.
I outline the basics of the Advent of Code Repo layout and the features it needs to support.
The Finance-Elves need help balancing the books, all their data is in JSON format, can we help them?
DevContainers are always the starting point for a project for me, Advent of Code is no different. This DevContainer will be home for the challenges over the next year.
We are throwing a holiday feast and need to work out the most optimal seating plan to keep everyone happy.
Typescript is the foundation of the AoC repo. It's the language I start most challenges in, and what the CLI is written in.
It's the Reindeer Olympics! Santa wants to know which of his Reindeer are the fastest, even when taking into account the breaks they need.
The next Segment of TIS-100 is ready to solve, in this level we need to double a value and get it to the output.
Python is the second language of the AoC challenge, something I have dabbled in a few times when contributing to open source projects.
Cookies are a requirement for the Holidays, we are tasked with finding the perfect Cookie recipe given a set of ingredients.
Go is a special language for me, it was the first language I used to do something more than fleeting experiments. It was a must include for the Advent of Code challenges.
We have receive an amazing present, but the card wasn't specific enough for us to work out who sent it. Luckily it was a crime scene analysis kit so it's just a matter of tracking them down!
We need to find the largest prime factor for a given number.
Rust is my 'challenge' language. I have never worked in it, and have little experience with similar languages. It's very much a learn as I go part of AoC.
The Elves have been busy ordering Eggnog, and have WAY too much! They have asked for our help working out how they can store all of it in the containers we have to hand.
The Fire Code has cracked down on a previous light display, so now we have to animate it to maintain the best display!
