<p>I love programming puzzles, even if I’ve never been particularly good at solving
|
||
them. For me they were always a good way to gain some practice with a new
|
||
programming language and to push myself to think for things unrelated to my job
|
||
or my own projects. Optimizing the performance of solutions to puzzles and
|
||
reading the solutions of other people is a very educational experience as
|
||
well. In recent years I rarely had time to play with puzzles, but this year I’ll
|
||
try to find a bit of time for <a href="https://adventofcode.com/2021">Advent of Code</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I’ll be using Clojure to solve the puzzles and I’ll post my solutions to <a href="https://github.com/bbatsov/advent-of-code2021">GitHub</a>. You can say that I’m also looking for an excuse to use <a href="https://github.com/clojure-emacs/cider/">CIDER</a> for anything else besides developing CIDER.</p>

<p>I already solved the first 4 puzzles (you get to solve 2 each day) and this was a lot of fun. Let’s see how far I’ll manage to get. If I manage to solve half the puzzles I’ll consider this a great success!</p>
|

|

<p>P.S. Don’t worry, I don’t plan to spam you daily with puzzle solutions!</p> |
