Advent of Code (AoC) is an annual event where a new programming puzzle is released every day from Dec 1st to Dec 25th. Here is why you should join:
- Problem Solving: The questions aren't standard LeetCode DSA. They require parsing messy inputs and thinking logically.
- Community: Check the Reddit discussions after solving. You will see solutions in Python, Rust, Haskell, and even Excel! It opens your mind to different ways of thinking.
- Consistency: Coding every day for 25 days builds a habit that will serve you well in your career.
