Getting ready for Advent of Code 2022

We always have fun in this forum around this time of the year, discussing the days’ (or yesterdays’) challenges and talking through solutions. I have an hour or two to spare around midnight nowadays to spend some hammock time, so figured I’d do some Advent of Code warm-up before the event. Looking at Twitter with the hashtag, seems like I’m not alone in this.

Also, see y’all in 32 days on another thread. Can’t wait to learn stuff with you.

Just in case any of you fine folks want to join in this pre-advent-of-code-advent-of-code discussion, let’s do it!

Still remembering advent of code 2 years ago, it was fun :slight_smile:
Unfortunately, like last year, I’m super busy and won’t participate :frowning:

Now will go on solving 2015/14

Looks like a fairly easy problem for a day 14. But I wonder if I can assign a worker per racer and then plot the state into LiveBook and watch a simulation of the race :thinking:

I am using OTP liberally this time. Had real fun solving the wire problems and the bot problem of 2015/7 and 2016/10.

I know I shaved yaks. Also I know I love Elixir.
