Learning Kotlin with Advent of Code 2017

December 29th 2017 Advent of Code Kotlin

It's December again and for the third year in a row I've spent a significant amount of time solving Advent of Code programming challenges. To make it even more interesting, I decided to write the solutions in Kotlin - a programming language I heard a lot of good things about, but had no prior experience in.

Advent of Code 2016

For the second year in a row, I spent a significant amount of time in December solving the Advent of Code programming puzzles. Before writing the first line of code, I created a repository for my solutions. Unlike last year, I wanted to have all the code readily available for future reference. More than once, I actually looked up previous solutions while solving a more recent puzzle.
