My solutions to Advent of Code 2020.
I participated in and completed the challenges in the required time, but some solutions were slow, inefficient or not conventional.
I upload the files after I have improved the algorithms and or naming conventions -- Not to say I have the best solutions. Some are still very slow TBH.
The emphasis of the code in this repository lies in verbosity (to a certain degree) and not speed. Not to say speed was not necessary, but if possible, speed was traded off for understanding.
And now, the introduction from the AoC challenge.
After saving Christmas five years in a row, you've decided to take a vacation at a nice resort on a tropical island. Surely, Christmas will go on without you. The tropical island has its own currency and is entirely cash-only. The gold coins used there have a little picture of a starfish; the locals just call them stars. None of the currency exchanges seem to have heard of them, but somehow, you'll need to find fifty of these coins by the time you arrive so you can pay the deposit on your room. To save your vacation, you need to get all fifty stars by December 25th. Collect stars by solving puzzles. Two puzzles will be made available on each day in the Advent calendar; the second puzzle is unlocked when you complete the first. Each puzzle grants one star. Good luck!
