Advent Of Code 2021

Find the sleigh key to save Santa, using your smol submarine!

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.

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.
