I really hope you put together a full programming course one day. I know it is a crowded space with a lot of really good content, but you have a great teaching style!
I really like Advent of Code to explore new languages and libraries. This year I am exploring the fp-ts library on how to solve those challenges in a more functional way.
Great video! I teach CS to young students and have them tackling some of these puzzles (esp. the early ones). Definitely going to tell them to watch this video. I've also put together a few "strategy guides" which are designed to walk through a general approach rather than just showing a solution. Today we tackled Day 1 and 2 in class. It was a blast!
"There's always a part two that kinda gives a little twist on it. you can reuse a lot from the first part but there's gonna be some interesting twists that will always be a little challenging" Day sixers: 💀
I actually found advent of code not so fun, cause how much text I have to read, to just get a sense of what problem they want me to solve. So instead of coding, I was more like "Did I understand the question?", so I give it a 2 out of 10 cause I probably have some adhd reading text :) Never felt the same with codewars anyway.
i was never able and will never be able to deal with algorithms. why do people who can think it's easy? i'm on day one and i have no idea what to do with the numbers. i ain't parsing shit today!

Agreed! If he had a Udemy course? I'd join in a heartbeat. Strong work!

That's a really great idea, love it!
Same Here. But instead fp-ts I use ts-belt. I find it more robust
great idea

That’s awesome! So cool to young students getting into CS! All the best!
You've got me excited! Joined your leaderboard and am gonna have some fun with Python! Happy holidays:)
Hell yeah! Nice video man, I'm participating this year, my goal is to reach the day 20 mark :)
Hopefully one day you give us some Rust tips:)

Day sixers: 💀
LOL
Actually, day 6 part 2 has been the simplest part 2 so far for me :)
@@andrew-burgess exactly. It was disappointing to say the least.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought part two of day 4 was trivial after having done part 1...
Then I got to day 6, LOL
Got a Spot in your Board 🙃

Yeah, I hear that. Sometimes the story surrounding the actual problem was be kinda distracting.
