Advent of Code 2024

A bunch of terrible code to fulfill the requirements of the Advent of Code (http://adventofcode.com/).

Thoughts

2024-12-01T05:06-0800

Getting started with perl because it is late at night and I couldn't sleep. If I get fancy, I might do Zig/Go/CL/Gleam as well.

Progress

Here's my done-ness to date:

2024-11-13T09:15 Day 0 Boilerplate

I'm thinking that spending a bit of effort to create a baseline for fundamental structure would be good for all languages that I start with.

I created a data set called 00.dat that I expect every language to open, print, and perhaps do some other manipulations on that data.

I'm considering what programming languages I'll use for this year. I think that my best bet would be to just do the things in perl and then if I feel fancy, pick up another programming language to mess around with.

Here are the potential alternative languages:

  • Gleam - Seems like a nice language that sits on top of the Erlang VM
  • Common Lisp - Cuz why not
  • Go - I'm already pretty ok with this. It is just slow.
  • Julia - It has been a long time since I've poked at it. It was super fun.
  • Zig - I really like this language.
  • Odin - I know nothing about this.
