AoC

Stevo's Advent of Code Repo.

See timings here.

Games

Only two so far, but maybe more to come. See the AoC.Games README.

To run the games, navigate to the root of the repository in a terminal, then for macOS:

• ./run.sh mirrors or
• ./run.sh mazes

For Windows:

• run.bat mirrors or
• run.bat mazes

Solutions

To run the solutions, navigate to the root of the repository in a terminal, command prompt or shell. Then execute the relevant command.

• ./run.sh for macOS (and Linux in theory, but untested).
• run.bat for Windows.

Both can take the puzzle year (4 digits), day (2 digits) and part (1 digit) as a parameter. Examples:

• ./run.sh runs all puzzles.
• ./run.sh 2023 runs puzzles from 2023.
• ./run.sh 2023.01 runs both parts of the puzzle from 2023 day 1.
• ./run.sh 2023.01.2 runs part 2 of the puzzle for 2023 day 1.

Visualisations

Now supports cross-platform visualisations. YouTube playlist of them here.

To run the visualisation, navigate to the root of the repository in a terminal, command prompt or shell. Then execute the relevant command with the desired visualisation as a parameter.

• ./visualise.sh 2023.16.1 for macOS (and Linux in theory, but untested).
• visualise.bat 2023.16.1 for Windows.

The parameter is exactly the same as for run.[bat|sh] as above; yyyy.dd.p with p being 1 or 2.

If using Windows you can automatically save a recording of the visualisation (say, for uploading to YouTube). Specify the path as a second parameter.

• visualise.bat 2023.16.1 C:\Videos\AoC\visualisation.avi
