Advent of Code

Hark, how the bells

sweet silver bells

all seem to say

"throw cares away"

Solutions written in Typescript in the general structure

src
  /1
    /prompts
      1.basic.ts
    index.ts
    parseInput.ts

Most daily challenges have a slightly nuanced way to parse the input before you can meaningfully handle the challenge, this is abstracted into the parseInput file.

Additionally there are a handful of utils for common tasks

splitByLine

Returns an array separated list of strings spliting by new lines, and removing empty lines, helping to remove copy paste errors.

parseIntoMultiDimensions

Useful if you have a prompt that represents a grid.

progressBar

Implements a node progress bar singleton that can be instantiated and used to see long running tasks
