About Advent of Code

Advent of Code is a series of programming puzzles designed by Eric Wastl. It consists of daily challenges, each focusing on a particular problem-solving aspect. The puzzles are released one per day, starting on December 1st and ending on December 25th.

For more information, visit Advent of Code.

Solutions

This repository contains my solutions to the Advent of Code challenges, implemented in Rust. Each day's solution is organized in a separate folder with a dedicated README file explaining the problem and my approach to solving it.

Guide

Link to the Usage Guide.

Usage

To run any specific day's solution, navigate to the respective folder and follow the instructions provided in the README file.

cd AdventOfCode2023
cargo run

Make sure you have Rust and Cargo installed on your system.

Folder Structure

The repository follows a consistent folder structure:

• days: Folder all challenge.

  • day_X Solved tasks for that day
    • task_1.rs: This file contains the code for task 1. It is written in Rust and demonstrates the use of basic programming concepts such as variables, control structures, and functions.
    • task_2.rs: This file contains the code for task 2. It builds upon the concepts introduced in task 1 and introduces extra complexity.
    • input.txt: Input data for the challenge.
    • README.md: Detailed explanation of the problem and my approach.

• [src/main.rs]: Rust source file containing the solution code.

Template

This is a template for the README file for each day's solution. Feel free to use it as a starting point for your own solutions.

use std::fs::read_to_string;

fn read_input(filepath: &str) -> Vec<String> {
    read_to_string(filepath)
        .unwrap()
        .lines()
        .map(String::from)
        .collect()
}

fn parse_input(lines: Vec<String>) -> Vec<String> {
    todo!()
}

pub fn run(filename: &str) -> usize {
    let lines = read_input(format!("src/days/day_X/{}", filename).as_str());
    todo!()
}
