The code is written as an AdventOfCode24 library which is built using CMake, the code of which is found in src/ with headers present in include/. Solutions to the problems then use this library and are found in solutions/. The project is carried out using test driven development using the examples for each problem to create tests built using GTest and found in tests/.

Building

Firstly clone this repository ensuring all sub-modules are cloned also:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/artemis-beta/Advent-of-Code-2024.git

You will need CMake, note also that the project assumes C++23 is available:

cmake -Bbuild [-DAOC24_BUILD_TESTS=ON] [-DAOC24_BUILD_SOLUTIONS=ON]
cmake --build build

Execute

Run the tests using the GTest executable:

./build/tests/AdventOfCode24_Test

Run the solutions from the relevant executable pointing to the applicable data file:

./build/solutions/day_1 ./solutions/data/day_1.txt
