I used Advent of Code last year to learn some Elixir. Since I haven’t used Elixir much this year, I am using AOC 2019 as an opportunity to refresh my Elixir skills.

Here is my solution for my solution for Day 1.

I decided to record my Erlang solutions this year, to show how much I can fail in trying to find a decently effective solution and how I come up with code.

Here’s Day 1:

I will try something new this year, will live stream solving the challenges on Twitch. Today the stream starts at 2pm CET (in 1 hour 15 mins), here’s my channel Will be using Elixir, and maybe Rust for some challenges.

Last year’s solutions are here.

P.S. First day solution is here. Forgot to switch on “save past broadcasts”, will not forget next time Next stream will be on Tuesday at 7pm CET.

That‘s a cool Boilerplate you got there. Gonna borrow it next time

Here’s my take.
