Advent of Code 2024

This repository contains my solutions for Advent of Code 2024 challenges. It is organized by day, and each day contains a Go program to solve the corresponding puzzle. The setup includes a simple justfile that automates creating new days, running solutions, and removing completed challenges.

Features

Automatic Setup: Easily set up a new day with the necessary files and input data.
Go-based Solutions: Each day contains a Go program that solves the problem.
Utility Functions: Common utilities are stored in cmd/utils/utils.go.
Daily Run Command: Easily run each day’s solution with a simple command.

Setup

Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/advent-of-code-2024.git
cd advent-of-code-2024

Install the necessary dependencies for Go.
Install Just.
```
brew install just
```
Set up your session cookie for Advent of Code. You can obtain it by logging into your Advent of Code account and copying the value from your browser.
```
export SESSION="your_session_cookie_here"
```

Commands

Create a new day: To create a new day’s directory with a Go program template and input file, run:
```
just new-day 1
```
Replace 1 with the day number you want to create. This will:
- Create a new folder in cmd/2024/day_{{DAY}}
- Copy a Go template into the new directory
- Fetch the input data for the day from the Advent of Code website
Run the solution: To run the Go program for a specific day, use:
```
just run 1
```
Replace 1 with the day number you want to run.
Remove a day: If you want to remove the day’s folder and files, run:
```
just remove 1
```
Replace 1 with the day number you want to remove.
