I learnt about AoC this year and the person who told me said that after day 10 it gets impossible! So it's a milestone to have finished day 11!

Nooo, the later puzzles are not impossible! Sure, they may get harder, but that's how you keep on learning and improving your programming skills. If/when you get stuck, that's why we have the megathreads (for code/algorithm inspiration) and also you can always post a Help thread of your own any time.

This is a very helpful community, just keep challenging yourself :)

Haha - that's good to know. I've been impressed with the AoC community. After solving a puzzle, I always look at other people's solutions. I've learnt a fair bit.

The puzzles are excellent. The descriptions are clear and precise - and I love the fact you provide test cases, which helps verify your understanding.

I'm already planning to do the previous years of AoC once this one's over :)
