Advent of Code 2023 Day 17
Part 1
First day skipped, sadly
This is a shortest path challenge.
It will likely involve - and probably require:
- A graph
- A shortest-path algorithm like Dijkstra's or A*
- Recursion, maybe?
Every time I try to research shortest path algorithms, the resulting articles seem overly confusing, and the code snippets seem overly complex.
I wish I could say this is the challenge that pushes me to learn, practice and overcome my struggle with these topics.
But it isn't.
Instead, I'm just going to throw in the towel.
And move right on to Day 18.
Before I go:
- Be better than me
- Pause, struggle and overcome
- Put more effort in before giving up
- Become the teacher I wish I had and publish an article that walks through every detail of your journey
