Advent of code in Rust - solving day 3/2021 (Twitch Live 2022-01-24)
2In this episode, we completed day 3 of Advent of Code y2021 using Rust!
This exercise required us to do some bit manipulation and data filtering to come up with 2 numbers that needed to be multiplied together to get the solution.
Nothing particularly new here, but we took the opportunity to experiment with a bunch of things including using fold with callbacks (https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/trait.Iterator.html#method.fold), filtering vector of references, using cost generics (https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2000-const-generics.html) and finally we did some performance testing.
If you have any suggestion, we'd love to hear it, so please leave a comment or a create a PR!
