Solutions for the 2016 edition of the Advent of Code - http://adventofcode.com/2016
Back again for another year, the little Advent of Code site that has a new pair of problems to solve each new day (i.e., midnight Eastern time) and this repository holds my solutions using ruby
There are a few files that help with the mechanics of the challenge itself. The value for the session cookie from teh site is stored in the ./.session file. The day_prep.rb retrieves the challenge description and builds the initial solution file using the day_template.rb. The input for the day's challenge is retrieved (and cached!) using code from the module defined in input.rb.
My solutions for the original 2015 installment of the Advent of Code is in the repo: rab/adventofcode2015
