advent-of-code-2020 VS AdventOfCode.Template

C# implementation: https://github.com/andi0b/advent-of-code-2020/blob/main/src/Day19.cs

Earlier this year, I wrote about scripting and automation in VSCode using typescript as part of an ongoing project to reduce time consuming repetitive actions in my professional life. So this seemed like a perfect opportunity to do something similar at a more targeted domain space. Additionally, I'd seen a few examples of AOC runners floating around (pre-built libraries and templates that come with hope to help streamline the mechanics of participating in AOC). There are a few solutions in the .NET ecosystem, but they're all in C#!

You can use it 'as-is', or start from this template to better understand how it works 😊

I didn't really care about executing times, but using C# I ran into array size limits which made me switch to my approach. I'm using eduherminio/AdventOfCode solver framework which returns 0.5ms as a result, which I'm pretty sure is not correct tough. Adding a stopwatch to the executing method returns 3ms. Hope that helps.

Great, me too! Check out this c# template on github for an easy way to manage the problems
