I enjoyed working the advent puzzles. Thank you for providing such fun entertainment and math challenges! Attempted most without any programming help but some begged for a programming solution. Refreshed some former Python skills to happily solve a few puzzles. Looking forward to math solutions. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
