🎄 Advent of Code 🎄

This is a repository of my Advent of Code solutions. Some puzzles are accompanied by concise descriptions 😉

I try to optimize each solution as much as possible, so although they are written in Python, many run in less than a second!

Also check out these cool animated annual AoC images!

💎 — A brief description is available

My goal is to keep solutions as close to the original as possible, so I generally do not edit past solutions. Sometimes I correct the code style (without even remembering what the task was about), but in the future I will try not to do this

The entire repository is PEP8 compliant, as verified by the flake8 linter (with the exception of some rules)
Input files may contain any number of empty lines, especially at the end. In some cases, this also applies to whitespace characters.
Currently I like to handle this rule using the following general snippet to read files:
```
with open('input.txt') as file:
    lines = list(filter(None, map(str.strip, file)))
```

If you computer scruggles to render smooth animations, buy a new one¹ :)

Wanna know how I automatically created animated vector images with transparent gradient borders within GitHub Markdown? Check out this folder

Footnotes

Joking of course! It's just that almost all annual AoC images contain a ton of HTML objects, each with its own animation. Rendering one image on a modern hardware is easy, but when there are many of them, it becomes a mess)
In all seriousness, I'm not sure if I want to hold on to these animations or drop some of them ↩
