Hi,

I solved a couple of challenges from the last year's AoC in both Ada and
Rust, just to get a feel for the differences between them in a puzzle
solving context:

I've been organising a weekly recreational coding workshop at my company
for the last couple of years, and we've been solving Project Euler and
Codility task. I stopped doing it in March because of the Covid-19
situation, but we'll reboot it online on December 1st, when AoC 2020
starts, though our schedule will remain the same - one AoC problem
per week.

A while ago we did some interview question exercises on #Ada Telegram
group, so maybe we can do it again there.

Regards,
Bojan
