My solutions for Advent of Code 2022 and 2023

My solutions to Advent of Code

I have started solving the coding puzzles of Advent of Code in December 2022. All solutions are written in Rust.

Executing

This assumes that current Rust toolchain is installed.

1. Enter the directory of the appropriate year, e.g. aoc2023.
2. Place your input files in a new input directory with the name dayX.txt, where X is the name of the day the input belongs to. For example: aoc2023/input/day1.txt.
3. Run cargo run --bin dayX (again replacing X with the day number) to run the code on the given input.
4. Add 2 as a command line argument (cargo run --bin dayX 2) to run the second part of the puzzle.

Instead of relying on the input directory it is possible to directly specify the path of the input file in the command line arguments. For example: cargo run --bin dayX 2 ../my_input.txt.

Note: Solutions of year 2022 are split into different binaries for each part of the puzzle. Use --bin dayX-0 and --bin dayX-1 in that case.
