Advent of Code (AoC) Solutions

Solutions provided in Python 3.11

Folder Contents

Each day's directory contains the following:

1. A README with:
   • Problem summaries
   • The original Problem Statement from the AoC website
   • The solution for each of the two parts given my specific input
2. A requirements.txt file if any external libraries are used (though I generally try to avoid this for these challenges).
3. One or more example.txt file(s) with the example input from the Problem Statement. Each of these files is a simple case for the given problem and good for initial testing.
4. A puzzle input.txt file with official input from the website, and upon which the solutions are based. It is my understanding that this input is different for each participant.
5. A Python file with the solution code. Executing this file will print the solution for each of the two parts for that day.

Notes on Approach

• I do my best to cite any time I use ideas from others' solutions. The AoC Subreddit is great!
• I'm prioritizing using OOP and increasing readability over minimizing lines of code.
