Getting into the holiday spirit with Advent of Code puzzles, this year in Python and Rust*! 🐍🦀☃️🎁
There are three main sections below for each day's puzzle, with two icons/emojis representing parts 1 and 2:
- the exploration/notebook solution(s) for each part
- the executable Python for each part (
poetry run ./solutions/day____.py) - the executable Rust for each part (
cargo run --bin ____ --release)
For the non-notebook sections, tests (pytest and cargo nextest) are be included for any with a ✅ to ensure the solutions work with the example inputs provided in each day of Advent of Code puzzle.

| 5 | ✅⛔ | ✅⛔ | ✅⛔ | I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around what part 2 is asking, even after seeing some visualizations. |
| 6 | ✅✅ | ✅✅ | ✅✅ | |
| 7 | ✅✅ | ✅✅ | ✅✅ | I haven't had to deal with rust's Display impl for custom fmt until now, but it helped debugging quite a bit here; it wasn't as clean/straightforward as python's __repr__ method, but still useful to play with. |
| 8 | ✅🕒 | ✅🕒 | 🕒🕒 | Initially abandoned part 2, but I think I was on the right track (not brute-forcing) and want to revisit it. |

| 12 | ✅⛔ | ✅⛔ | 🕒🕒 | Getting pretty tired of the "do part 1 but with way more data" trend here. |

*I'm starting with Python each day, and using this year as a way to become generally more comfortable with Rust. Maybe I'll start puzzles in Rust next year!
