Last year I discovered by chance a code competition that happens in the month
of December: The Advent of Code.
This event consists of small puzzles release every day of December, up to the
25th. Which amounts to 25 problems! (I can do math).
Last year I tried doing some on Bash, and latter switched to Julia, but never
got to finish them.
This year I decided to use Julia, because I want to
test it for these general problems. Some problems are very hard, and I want
to have the packages at my disposal.
