Advent of Code 2021 Event (joint with Manchester "R-thritis" group)

The Advent of Code (https://adventofcode.com), a series of daily programming puzzles running up to Christmas, starts soon. On 3 December, the Manchester R-thritis Statistical Computing Group, jointly with Warwick R User Group, is hosting an informal online meetup where we will discuss different approaches to tackling (and hopefully solving) the challenges using R and related languages/tools. This is a good opportunity for R newbies to familiarise themselves with basics of programming syntax, as well as for advanced users to learn tips and tricks.

Join us on Friday 3 December at 10:00 via MS Teams. We’ll discuss how we solved (or got stuck) on the first 2 days’ problems.

We also have a private leaderboard that you can join with code 1202960-72f415d3
