Advent of Code 2024

My solutions to Advent of Code problems.

Python

To run, go to the folder for the corresponding day, go to the Python/ subfolder, modify input to match your input provided on the Advent of Code site (or modify solution.py to use the example input), and run it like so:

python3 solution.py

If alternative instructions are required, they will be covered in a Readme in that day's folder.

Bash

To run, go to the folder for the corresponding day, go to the Bash/ subfolder, modify the input to match your input, and run the solution like so:

./solution.sh

If alternative instructions are required, they will be covered in a Readme in that day's folder.

Awk

To run, go to the folder for the corresponding day, go to the Awk/ subfolder, modify the input to match your input, and use cat to pass the file to awk via stdin:

cat example | ./solution.awk

If any input variables are required (for example, to run part 1 or part 2 separately), pass them using the -v <var_name>=<var_value> syntax:

cat example | ./solution.awk -v part=1
cat example | ./solution.awk -v part=2

Rust

To run, go to the folder for the corresponding day, go to the Rust/ subfolder, modify the input to match your input, and run the Rust program in src/main.rs by using the cargo run command:

# Run the debug version with no optimization
cargo run

# Run the optimized version
cargo run --release

Java

To run, go to the folder for the corresponding day, go to the Java/ subfolder, modify the input to match your input, and compile and run the Java program in Solution.java with these two steps:

javac Solution.java && java Solution
