Usage

Create files for a new day

The create script allow you to create the required files to start a new day resolution. You just need to use the create script with the day (1 to 24) you need as last parameter

yarn run create [day]

It will create a new folder in the src folder with the following files :

src
  - day[day]
    - lib.ts              # Common library to resolve the current day
    - lib.spec.ts         # Test file for the library
    - part1.ts            # The main file for the first part of today puzzle
    - part1.spec.ts       # The test file for the first part of today puzzle
    - part2.ts            # The main file for the second part of today puzzle
    - part2.spec.ts       # The test file for the second part of today puzzle

Additionnally, it will add two input files in the inputs folder :

inputs
  - [day]-1.txt           # The input data for the first puzzle of day [day]
  - [day]-2.txt           # The input data for the second puzzle of day [day]

Note : if your try to relaunch the creation script on a day already existing, it will ignore the creation and keep your current files
