Welp, I broke #adventjs day 24 🤣. Solution was too clever and avoided the actual algorithm they wanted me to write

Out of context Welcome to Derry

I've completed "Linen Layout" - Day 19 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/19

Instincts for reusing day 16 were somewhat correct, but I needed a BFS solution instead. Nailed it on part 2 though!

I've completed "RAM Run" - Day 18 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/18

Tricky, tricky. I'm glad I was already familiar with bitwise ops, but needed considerable help to understand how to work backwards. Bonus is I found a fun use for a generator function

I've completed "Chronospatial Computer" - Day 17 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/17

Finally percolated on this one long enough to make sense of the problem!

I've completed "Garden Groups" - Day 12 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/12

Whew! Found out the perils of too strict a optimization path can bring in part 2

I've completed "Reindeer Maze" - Day 16 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/16

This is a great example of a problem where there's clearly a better way to solve part 2 than manually auditing thousands of output states for one that "looks right.

I've completed "Restroom Redoubt" - Day 14 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/14

I've completed "Plutonian Pebbles" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/11

Been bad at sharing them as I complete it, but first 10 are done!

I've completed "Hoof It" - Day 10 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/10

Wew, part 2 took some time

I've completed "Guard Gallivant" - Day 6 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/6

I've completed "Print Queue" - Day 5 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/5

This was a very fun take on 2d "maze" algorithms!

I've completed "Ceres Search" - Day 4 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/4

I've completed "Mull It Over" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/3

I've completed "Red-Nosed Reports" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/2

I struggled on this one a bit on part2. I wound up brute forcing every iteration of each line rather that something clever. Any hints on some more clever algorithms?

I just completed "Historian Hysteria" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1
