For anyone who doesn’t know, advent of code is a series of coding challenges that happens every year. It’s made to be like an advent calendar, with one programming challenge released per day until Christmas. Something interesting about this is that since the challenges only need the output of the program, you can do it in any language you want. I thought it might be interesting to compare and discuss solutions (ideally spoilered in case anyone hasn’t completed the challenge yet).
Thoughts?
Seems fun I’d love to give it a shot. I’d suggest though that we should do our own variant (if people are interested). Reason being that adventofcode.com requires people to identify themselves with 1 of 4 Imperial big tech websites (Github, Google, Twitter, Reddit) and skipping this step doesn’t seem to be an option.
I can see why privacy would be an issue, although I’m not sure I’d be able to come up with a bunch of interesting code challenges for our own variant.
if it’s just text (I can’t check since it blocks Tor access), you can include it in your daily posts so we can avoid the site
