My solutions to Advent of Code 2024 in Rust

Input

My personal inputs are not included in this repo per https://adventofcode.com/2024/about.

Currently, the expected location of the inputs are: ./input/dayNN.txt and ./input/dayNN_test.txt e.g. ./input/day02.txt and ./input/day02_test.txt

Place your input(s) in that directory, with the same naming convention to have this repo work as-is for your problem inputs.

Usage

Run the program from the command line without any arguments to solve every problem so far, e.g.

cargo run

Arguments

Pass arguments when running the program to change the output:

• --day <n> - specify a single day to run
• --tree-size <n> - specify the size of the tree, defaults to sizing based off of the day
• --no-festive - do not print the ASCII tree

e.g.

Run a single day

cargo run -- --day 5
