Recently got started with Nix and Home-Manager. I thought Advent Of Code would be a good way to get more comfortable with the Nix language.
I don’t think I ever made it beyond Day 6 though, even in my most comfortable language (Python) so no idea where this will strand.
I am learning a lot about Nix though!
Have you used the Nix language outside of configuration? Let’s share and discuss!
@F04118F which I promptly did away with because I couldn’t be arsed today lol
@F04118F if it’s for todays advent of code, I used split and it worked fine. See my live steam on YouTube or my GitHub .
Somehow I completely missed that split can do match groups… Oopsie! I did it in Python today but I did make a completely functional (and way too complicated) algorithm.
Tap for spoiler
The way you handle the do and dont is much cleaner
