## What
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This repository hosts the code that I produced to solve the different puzzles
|
||
|
|
provided for the Advent of Code 2021, that you can find [here](https://adventofcode.com/2021).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to solve the different puzzles, I used the **Rust** programming language,
|
||
|
|
as I wanted a way to experiment and practice this new language.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are no dependencies and no external crate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To execute it, just open the specific day you want to run, and use `cargo run --release -- ./input`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Replacing the `input` file **should** work without any code modification.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Why
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Because puzzles are fun! And Rust is fun too!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Yikes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The code produced may not be optimal nor the fastest. And that's normal, I tried
|
||
|
|
to spend less than a day (and to do it in my spare time after school).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The code is also very ugly for a reason: usually I use single letters for the
|
||
|
|
variable names. Usually it's fine. For me. For other people re reading me, it's
|
||
|
|
less fun. So I forced myself to use mainly single characters as variable names,
|
||
|
|
just to make me want to stop doing it.
