Welcome to my solutions for the Advent of Code 2024! This repository contains my daily solutions to the programming challenges created by Eric Wastl. Each day in December leading up to Christmas, a new two-part coding challenge is released. Join me in celebrating the holidays through code! 🎅✨

🚀 About

Advent of Code is an annual programming event where each day of December unlocks a fun and challenging puzzle. These puzzles are designed to test problem-solving skills, algorithm design, and creativity. While competitive leaderboards exist, my goal is to learn, improve, and enjoy the journey!

🛠️ Technologies Used

This repository contains solutions implemented in:

Go 1.23

Feel free to explore the different approaches I've taken and provide feedback or suggestions!

📁 Repository Structure

The repository is organized as follows:

advent-of-code-2024/
│
├── day01/                 # Day 1: Challenge and solutions
│   ├── input.txt          # Puzzle input for Day 1
│   └── solution.go        # Solution code written in Go
│
├── day02/
│   ├── input.txt
│   └── solution.go
│
├── utils/                 # Shared helper functions or utilities
│   └── ...
│
├── tests/                 # Tests for solutions
│   └── ...
│
└── README.md              # This file

Each folder (e.g., day01, day02) contains:

input.txt: The provided puzzle input for the day.
solution.go: The solution script for the day's challenge.

🧑‍💻 Running the Solutions

To run a solution, call the corresponding Solve() method from the main.go and adjust the input and output accordingly:

go run main.go

Make sure you have Go installed.

🧪 Testing

To run the tests, execute:

go test ./tests/...
