What is this Advent Of Code for?
- macintux 5y agohttps://adventofcode.com/2021/about https://adventofcode.com/2021/about In short, it's a creative set of challenges released once/day for 25 days during December. It's also a creative community of people solving the problems (sometimes programming, sometimes with other tools, even just pencil & paper) and more than that creating visualizations and new programming languages, learning new programming languages... It's just a fun ride. To me it's the digital equivalent of RAGBRAI, which is a rolling party across Iowa each year that happens to be on bicycle. Advent of Code is as much about the community as the problems. (Minor wording edit.)
