This Christmas break I had some time left over and the only year I had left was 2018. I had saved it for last because I had heard many people say it was the most difficult, and boy were they right. I did it in Python to see how it would be to perhaps use it for 2022 and I must say it is really a great language for AoC. Day 23 I think was probably more of the most difficult days of them all for me. I ended up using Z3 which just gave me the answer for free, felt almost like cheating. It also had a few days with a lot of details to get right (15,24) and two difficult reverse-engineering questions.

Polyglot challenge is fun. Some languages really bend the mind. If you need some inspiration: https://github.com/ttencate/aoc2016 https://github.com/ttencate/aoc2017

I've found that this suits the most for a screen to play Bad Apple on. I believe this is an appealing concept.

Heh, I still mean to do this for 2015 too, but not using any of the languages I used in 2016 or 2017. They are getting rather obscure now...
