Advent of Code 2018

Herein lies my Elixir solutions for the Advent of Code 2018 puzzles.

Approach

My approach to each problem involves the following procedure:

  1. Write an initial solution for each puzzle with no help beyond code documentation.
  2. Rewrite initial solutions to improve the code's readability and performance.
  3. Watch José Valim (the author of Elixir) solve the solutions.
  4. Refactor again, keeping the core of my solution intact (unless truly awful), but applying anything interesting learned from his solution.
