Day 12: Garden Groups

Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

Create post

An unofficial home for the advent of code community on programming.dev!

Advent of Code is an annual Advent calendar of small programming puzzles for a variety of skill sets and skill levels that can be solved in any programming language you like.

Rules/Guidelines

  • Follow the programming.dev instance rules
  • Keep all content related to advent of code in some way
  • If what youre posting relates to a day, put in brackets the year and then day number in front of the post title (e.g. [2024 Day 10])
  • When an event is running, keep solutions in the solution megathread to avoid the community getting spammed with posts
