Usage

Creating a template for a new day

To create a new template for a given day, simply run:

cargo run n <day>

where is the day you want to create. Example, where 3 is for day 3 of of the advent of code 2023. This will create:

• your days/three/one.rs file: which is where you will write your puzzle 1 implementation for the day.
• your days/three/two.rs file: which is where you will write your puzzle 2 implementation for the day.
• your days/three/input.txt file, which is where you will put your input for the day.
• your days/three/mod.rs file, you can ignore this if you want.

Run the day

To run the program for a given day, simply run:

cargo run r <day> <puzzle>

where is a number for the day you want to run, and puzzle is 1 or 2.

Example, where 3 is for day 3 of of the advent of code 2023 (3rd December) and you want to run the second puzzle, you would run:

cargo run r 3 2
