advent-of-code-2022

My solutions to the 2022 Advent of Code challenge. I'm not competing on any leaderboards this year, but I do plan to complete both parts of all days. As usual, I'm also prioritizing readable code over compact or "magic" solutions. Feedback and questions are welcome!

Usage

• From Rider IDE:
  1. select one of the included run configurations and click "Run" or "Debug".
• From a terminal:
  1. Open a terminal and navigate to the solution root.
  2. Execute dotnet run --configuration Release --project Main -- <command> [options]
     • Supported commands:
       • list <what> - list data from internal registries. what specifies what data to return and can be one of these options:
         • solutions [day] [part] - list available solutions. day and part both default to all.
         • inputs [day] [part] [variant] - list registered input files for a solution. day, part, and variant all default to all.
       • run [day] [part] [variant] [options] - run one or more solutions. day and part both default to all. variant defaults to null, which means no variants will be selected. Supports options:
         • [--input {id | name | type}] - select a registered input file to use. Use list inputs to show all options. Applies to all selected days/parts.
         • [--custom-input path_to_input] - specify an custom, external input file to use. Applies to all selected days/parts.
       • bench [day] [part] [variant] [options] - benchmark one or more solutions. Supports same options and defaults as run, and additionally supports:
         • [--min-warmup-time time_in_ms] - set the minimum time (in milliseconds) to run warmup rounds (default 2000ms).
         • [--min-warmup-rounds num_rounds] - set the minimum number of warmup rounds (default 10).
         • [--min-sample-time time_in_ms] - set the minimum time (in milliseconds) to run sampling (benchmark) rounds (default 10000ms).
         • [--min-sample-rounds num_rounds] - set the minimum number of sampling (benchmark) rounds (default 10).
         • [--no-warmup] - skip warmup rounds entirely. Useful when using an external profiler.
       • --help [command] - show help.
       • --version - show project version.
     • Options:
       • --vebose - Show verbose / debug output. Defaults to off.
     • Parameters:
       • day - should be in Day## format. Can also be the string all to select all days.
       • part - should be in Part# format. Can also be the string all to select all parts.
       • variant - format is day/part-specific. Can also be the string all to select all variants.
       • path_to_input - if set, overrides the input file. Path is resolved relative to the current working directory.
       • command - if set, shows detailed help about a specific command.

Details

• Dotnet 6 is required to run the solutions.
• Project files are included for JetBrains Rider, but the solution should work in Visual Studio or with the dotnet command line.
• Solutions should run on any supported .NET platform.
