DIDE does advent of code, 2020

Each year, Advent of code runs as a series of small programming challenges. It's good fun, but it can be a lot of work to complete all the puzzles by yourself.

So the idea here is to complete the puzzles cooperatively! Dip in and out, complete a puzzle that hasn't been done yet, or have a shot at one that has been done in a different language, with a different approach, or whatever. Look through the alternative versions and learn something about different ways of solving problems.

Everyone who wants to can have push access to this repository - we won't be using pull requests unless you want to suggest changes to someone else's solution. So a little structure is required to keep us from conflict hell.

Each day goes into a directory called d followd by a two digit number (d01, d02, ..., d25). Within each directory all files that you create should be prefixed with your name or github name (whatever is most convenient and relatively unambiguous), e.g., richfitz.R, richfitz-support.R. If you need a heap of support files for whatever reason, consider using a directory (e.g., richfitz/).

If you can't get a problem solved, just skip ahead until you find one you like, or use an existing solution to help get yours working.
