Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
Having decided to try learning a bit about Nim using AoC2019, I joined the [private leaderboard](https://adventofcode.com/2018/leaderboard/private), but never expected to be in the top 10 (I'm at 5 now, `dougcurrie`). So, I'll list my repo now in case anyone searching for Nim Advent of Code solutions in the future looks here. [https://github.com/dcurrie/AdventOfCode](https://github.com/dcurrie/AdventOfCode)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
My first time participating in Advent of Code! [https://github.com/kaushalmodi/aoc2019](https://github.com/kaushalmodi/aoc2019) :)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
First year of AoC and first year of Nim too. Each part I usually take 2 hours so I need dedicate 4 hours each day to finish it. [https://github.com/me7/AdventOfCode](https://github.com/me7/AdventOfCode) Looking at other people code once I've done it is my favorite part. I've learn what's my mistake everyday
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
Relatively new to nim but decided to have fun learning with this year's AoC (and practicing on previous years' for speed). This is probably filled with non-idiomatic and misc. bad practices. [https://github.com/Kaynato/AdventOfCode](https://github.com/Kaynato/AdventOfCode)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
Here is my repo. Solving in nim and then doing some in Elixir as well [https://github.com/tradfursten/advent_of_code_2019](https://github.com/tradfursten/advent_of_code_2019)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
My solutions: [https://git.sr.ht/~reesmichael1/adventofcode](https://git.sr.ht/~reesmichael1/adventofcode) And since it seemed like a shame to not use Nim's macros somewhere, I went ahead and built a simple runner that loads all of the solution files automagically at compile time! (I've only used macros a few times now, so if anyone knows of a better way to do what I've done, please let me know!)

Good catch ;)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
Decided to give this a proper try this year. Let's see how this goes. My repo is here: [https://github.com/dom96/aoc2019](https://github.com/dom96/aoc2019) Already found a bug in Nim heh: [https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/12788](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/12788)

I'm sticking to Nim this year too. [https://github.com/filipux/adventofcode2019](https://github.com/filipux/adventofcode2019)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
As last year, I will use Nim and only Nim. [https://github.com/lscrd/AdventOfCode2019](https://github.com/lscrd/AdventOfCode2019)
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
I almost got convinced to defect to Ocaml, but sticking to Nim for this year: [https://github.com/zevv/aoc2019](https://github.com/zevv/aoc2019). Enjoy people!

Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
12 hours to go!
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
I am hyped! Last year was the first time I tried nim. It was a pleasant experience so I'll do the same this year as well. It has been inspiring to see the solutions from those of you who are good in nim and see the beautiful solutions to the puzzles.
Re: Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
I should participate again I guess. I fear I'll have even less time than last year though. We'll see!
Advent of Nim 2019 megathread
This Sunday, December 1st, will mark the start of the fifth edition of [Advent of Code](https://adventofcode.com/). Advent of Code is, to quote its author, _“a series of small programming puzzles for a variety of skill sets and skill levels in any programming language you like”_. The rules of AoC are quite simple. Starting from December 1st until Christmas, every day at 5 a.m. UTC a new task is released. The tasks consist of two parts, where second part is revealed after you solve the first part, and it is a continuation and/or variation of the first part. You don’t submit your code, just the result of your calculation. The participation in AoC is free (although, if you like it, consider [donating](https://adventofcode.com/2018/support)), all you need to do is log in with your Github, Google, Twitter, or Reddit account. If you have never participated in AoC before or you want to prepare yourself for the start of the competition by solving some tasks, take a look at [the previous events](https://adventofcode.com/2019/events). # Nim leaderboard We are organizing the official Nim [private leaderboard](https://adventofcode.com/2018/leaderboard/private), where you can compete against other Nim users. To join the Nim leaderboard, all you have to do is use `40415-c732e66e` code in the previous link. If you are one of 120 (!) people who have joined this leaderboard last year, there's no need to do it again — you're already in. # Misc You can use this thread to post links to your AoC repositories, share your solutions, ask for help, discuss the tasks, etc. but have in mind these things: 1\. **SPOILERS** : Try to keep this thread as spoiler-free as possible: [r/adventofcode subreddit](https://old.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/) will have megathreads for each day and you can post there as soon as the global leaderboard is populated (and that is veeery quickly) — we would like to encourage you to share your Nim solutions there and showcase the beauty of Nim. 2\. **ASKING FOR HELP** : Feel free to ask for help either here or on Nim IRC/Gitter/Discord channel if you have some Nim-related problem, but have in mind that your snippets might contain spoilers for other who haven't solved the task yet — not everybody will be able to solve the tasks at 5 a.m. UTC. Consider waiting at least couple of hours before asking for help (in that time, try it some more to see if you can solve it by yourself :)). 3\. **HAVE FUN** : This is mandatory! # Our AoC 2019 repositories (this will be populated and continuously updated as people share links to their repos)
