Stupid mistakes/assumptions I did while solving puzzles
Year 2023
- Day 15: Missed one crucial sentence in the puzzle description, but fix was trivial.
- Day 14: Repeating cycles do not necessary start from 0
- Day 13: Assume that only 2 lines or 2 columns are not enough for the pattern to be mirrored
- Day 12: Silent int overflow
- Day 11: Off by one error (1 + 1000000 does not equal 1000000 multiplication of the universe)
- Day 10: Did not replace the start position with the correct pipe type
- Day 9: Did not fully account for the negative numbers
- Day 8: Looked at which index we reach the end instead of how many steps we need to reach the end
- Day 7: Constructing too many nested if/else for a much simpler logic, missed lots of edge cases
- Day 6:
- Day 5:
- Day 4:
- Day 3:
- Day 2:
- Day 1:
This repo does follow the automation guidelines on the /r/adventofcode community wiki https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/wiki/faqs/automation. Specifically:
- Once inputs are downloaded, they are cached locally
- If you suspect your input is corrupted, you can manually request a fresh copy by deleting the input file in
src/main/resources/inputs
and re-running the program. - The User-Agent header in com.vuryss.aoc.InputResolver is set to me since I maintain this repo :)
