🎄 Advent of Code 2015 🎄

A collection of solutions for the Advent of Code 2015 programming puzzles. I'm going to attempt these in Picat and maybe other languages if the mood is right.

I didn't solve these puzzles in 2015 so am in no rush to complete them every day, but feel free to check out my 2020 and 2021 repos which were mostly done in Haskell.

I'd recommend the Advent of Code to anyone -- they're really fun and interesting puzzles, and I've learned a lot from doing them.

Other years

• 2019 (unfinished, will resume later...)
• 2020 (mostly Haskell, one or two in Rust, Python and zz)
• 2021 (all Haskell except day 24 in Picat)
• 2022 (mostly Nim with a couple of Picat programs)
• 2023 (mostly Picat with a couple of Nim programs)
