@dev_Paul Nice, I remember you doing this last year. I am jumping in this year. I bet you I took a full 2hr longer to solve this in C :). I was extremely tempted to run back to Python.
@derickflorian I was doing about 6 "Advent" challenges last year and lasted about 3 days.... 😆
This year just this and Advent of Cyber (from Try Hack Me).
Yeah, I can see why you'd want to go back if you're stuck. My solution to part 1 was very standard that would work in C, Java etc. (keep a 'largest' variable while looping through the file). That was part of my problem.
Part 2 I found a slightly more Pythonic solution and refactored Part 1. Much easier.
@dev_Paul You have been using try hack me for a while now? How do you like it? Does it teach you anything about how to secure things like servers or safe coding?
@derickflorian I started their Advent of Cyber last year but stopped when I got overwhelmed by all the advent's I was doing.
I just started again for advent this year.
I haven't found anything on either of those. This is most of what they offer, they seem to have a decent amount of free resources too. https://tryhackme.com/hacktivities
