As good as AoC is, I think this year I might try and develop the same program (or maybe solve a single one of the puzzles) each day in a different programming language. So one puzzle, 24 languages.. I sorta feel I'd learn more from that rather than sharpening the same knife over and over, perhaps.
- josteink 7y agoSome knives needs more sharpening than others before they get useful. For instance, coming from mostly TS/C# I'm not going to be productive in Rust over night. 24 exercises sounds about right to me.
- tudorpavel 7y agoFor me AoC was perfect while learning a bit of Rust last year, but tread carefully if you want to have 2 mutable references to the same value like a circular or doubly linked list. Good luck and have fun with it!
- gameswithgo 7y agoAoC is pretty likely to have a graph problem at some point that will give Rust newbies fits! But that will help you learn!
