This repository documents how one can solve Advent of Code 2024 (AOC) using git-bob and the Large Language Model (LLM) Claude-3.5-Sonnet from Anthropic. After solving AOC1 during a github issue discussion I decided to approach all AOCs this year like this. Hence, I created a repository for only this. You find the discussions I had with the LLM and the resulting AOC solutions in the list of issues of in this repository. As the submission times of question and answers are saved, we can later measure how long it took to solve the individal AOC puzzles.
- AOC1: A long discussion with the LLM to figure out how to provide the input data.
- AOC2
- AOC3
- AOC4
- AOC5
- AOC6
- AOC7, 2nd attempt, 3rd attempt: Multiple attempts were necessary because the human instructor did not manage to upload the input data properly.
- AOC8
- AOC9
- AOC10
- AOC11: part 2 failed
- AOC12: part 2 failed
- AOC13: part 2 failed
When approaching the AOCs, I created an issue with the full text of the AOC and a statement where to find the input data (typically aoc*.txt).
Then, I added the trigger git-bob try to implement this.
In case the solution was wrong, I copied over the error message, and asked git-bob try again.
Once all AOCs are solved, I will add some statistics about how long it took to generate the code to solve the AOCs.
