AoC-2020
Advent of Code Solutions for 2020 in TypeScript. This year, I self-imposed a rule that I would unit test every day's submission, and, unless I was completely unable to do so, have every solution able to solve both parts in under the 15-second mark they suggest, on my 2017 MacBook Pro (15") (Failed on day 23-2 for this requirement).
I took a day off on day 20, but I went back and did it by hand the next day for a logic puzzle.
Highlights:
Favorite problems:
- Love regex, so I was glad how much it featured this year, especially in Day 19.
Leaderboard appearances:
- Didn't get on the leaderboard proper, but I did manage to get 303rd on day 3-1, so I was pretty excited about that!
- I got two triple digit showings on the 8th day!
- Overall much better showing that in 2019.

Scripting initially based on a script from Ullaakut. Expanded upon by HBiede
Makefile Automation
- Automatically downloads the challenge and input for the day (e.g.:
make download DAY=03)- In order to use this target, you need to specify your session cookie from adventofcode.com in cookies.txt through the usage of
make cookie SESSION={Insert your session cookie here}. - Parses the challenge into a markdown file (adds Markdown style headers and code blocks).
- In order to use this target, you need to specify your session cookie from adventofcode.com in cookies.txt through the usage of
- Setup the new day's source file from a template file while downloading the input and challenge per above (e.g.:
make DAY=03) - Create the stats table above by calling
make stats- May require calling
pip3 install -r requirements.txtto ensure you have all the necessary python dependencies
- May require calling
