Monotonic, you said?

My personal website

I've been using Advent of Code to start playing with the programming language Rust. This is what the journey looks like so far (early days).

In the lead up to Christmas each year, Advent of Code offers a series of 25 puzzles which start out reasonably simple, but get progressively harder, eventually requiring knowledge of algorithms and dynamic programming techniques. Last year I solved these in (strictly) base R on the day they were released (or as close to as I could). I then (starting Dec 27) went back and re-solved (13 of) them in Rust. This post details what I learned along the way and some fun visualisations I made.
