jparisu Advent of Code solutions

My own Advent of Code solutions repository

This repository hosts common tools to make AoC implementations easier, as the solutions to the problems that I solve.

How to use it

In order to run it, run the main.py file from the root of the repository:

python3 main.py

Arguments

It can be selected the year and day, the first or second part of the problem, whether to use the test input or the real one, and whether to run it in debug mode or not.

usage: main.py [-h] [-d] [-a DAY] [-y YEAR] [-b] [-t]

Execute Advent of Code solution

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d, --debug
  -a DAY, --day DAY
  -y YEAR, --year YEAR
  -b, --second
  -t, --test

How to create a new solution

Create a folder with the following structure:

- solutions
  - <year>
    - day_<x>
      - solution.py
      - inputs
        - input.in
        - test.in
  • solution.py is the file where the solution must be implemented.
  • input.in file with the real input.
  • test.in file with the test input.
  • test2.in (optional) file with the test input for the second problem.

It is useful to copy and paste day_x as template.

Solution file

In solution.py file must be implemented:

def solution_a(inp: List[str]) -> int:
    # First solution

def solution_b(inp: List[str]) -> int:
    # Second solution

Raw input

If the input must be passed to the function in raw format (in a line without modification) set the variable RAW_INPUT = True somewhere in the file. This is useful when blank lines are relevant.

Utils

In order to use utlis.py add the following:

import sys
sys.path.append('../../')
from utils import *

There are many utils functions implemented, as input parsing, matrix handling, math operations, etc.

Debug

Use functions debug(st: str), info(st: str) and error(st: str) for debug proposes.
