Advent of Code 2020 Solution Megathread - Day 2: Password Philosophy

Ryan Palo - Dec 2 '20 - - Dev Community

With Day 1 in the books, hopefully you’re starting to get into the swing of things. I know that I definitely didn’t spend a few hours fiddling with my AoC tooling yesterday. That would be obsessive and overkill. 😐

The Puzzle

Today’s puzzle involves passwords and security policies. Each listing has a password alongside the security policy in place for it, but some passwords aren’t compliant! It’s our job to analyze the passwords and sort things out.

The Leaderboards

As always, this is the spot where I’ll plug any leaderboard codes shared from the community.

If you want to generate your own leaderboard and signal boost it a little bit, send it to me either in a DEV message or in a comment on one of these posts and I'll add it to the list above.
