AdventOfCode2020 VS aoc

Back in 2020 I challenged myself to use a different language for each day of AoC. Some of the languages I heard of for the first time. From that brief experience:

I did it last year, you can check the list and some reflections here. I have also collected a list of other people's attempts.

Depends on what you already know and what you expect to learn. Last year I challenged myself to solve each puzzle in a different language, but this year I'll stick to Haskell.

I did the same thing this year: https://github.com/bereal/AdventOfCode2020/, and also collected other people's attempts. I added a link to your repo to the collection.

Elixir

1076/1738 — Raw solution (to refactor/possibly rewrite)

Solution

Busy day today, going back to sleep zzZZZ. Clean solution and walkthrough here later today (hopefully).

If you're using Python, you can check this guy walkthroughs, he's good at explaining things and uses many Python's features to write clean code. I'd suggest to try tackle a problem on your own, and whether you manage to get a solution or not, read his walkthrough, and re-implement a solution using his ideas. This is what I did two years ago and it was a big help for me, I was more and more able to come up with solutions without looking at what he did. I still check what he does today, but I always solve the problem on my own first now.

Solutions and walkthroughs for most of the years.

Congrats /u/skifire13 per il rank #233 globale, nice!
