## About Advent of Code
Advent of Code is an annual event that challenges developers with daily programming puzzles during the holiday season. Each day, a new problem is unlocked, and participants can solve it in any programming language they prefer. The event encourages learning and community engagement.
## Repository Overview
This repository contains solutions for all 25 challenges from the Advent of Code 2017. The solutions are organized by day, and you can find implementations in both Java and Kotlin. The goal is to provide clear, efficient, and well-documented code that can serve as a reference for others.
## Technologies Used
- **Java**: A versatile programming language that is widely used in various applications.
- **Kotlin**: A modern programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and is known for its concise syntax and safety features.
## Getting Started
To get started with this repository, you will need to clone it to your local machine. You can do this using the following command:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/chrisiphique/advent-of-code-2017.git
```
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the directory:
```bash
cd advent-of-code-2017
```
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed:
- Java Development Kit (JDK)
- Kotlin Compiler
You can download the JDK from the [Oracle website](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk11-downloads.html) and the Kotlin compiler from the [Kotlin website](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/command-line.html).
## Running the Solutions
To run the solutions, you will need to navigate to the specific day's folder and execute the Java or Kotlin files. For example, to run Day 1's solution, you would do the following:
### Java
```bash
cd day01
javac Solution.java
java Solution
```
### Kotlin
```bash
cd day01
kotlinc Solution.kt -include-runtime -d Solution.jar
java -jar Solution.jar
```
You can find the compiled solutions in the respective day folders. For a complete list of releases, check the [Releases section](https://github.com/chrisiphique/advent-of-code-2017/releases).
