[Today's challenge](http://adventofcode.com/2017/day/2) is to calculate a rather contrived "checksum" over a grid of numbers.

Today I went back to plain Python, and I didn't do formal tests because only one test case was given for each part of the problem. I just got stuck in.

[Today's challenge](http://adventofcode.com/2017/day/3) requires us to perform some calculations on an "experimental memory layout", with cells moving outwards from the centre of a square spiral (squiral?).

I've been wanting to try my hand at [Go](https://golang.com), the memory-safe, statically typed compiled language from Google for a while. Today's challenge seemed a bit more mathematical in nature, meaning that I wouldn't need too many advanced language features or knowledge of a standard library, so I thought I'd give it a "go". It might have been my imagination, but it was impressive how quickly the compiled program chomped through 60 different input values while I was debugging.

[Today's challenge](http://adventofcode.com/2017/day/4) describes some simple rules supposedly intended to enforce the use of secure passwords. All we have to do is test a list of passphrase and identify which ones meet the rules.

Fearing that today might be as time-consuming as yesterday, I returned to Python and it's hugely powerful "batteries-included" standard library. Thankfully this challenge was more straightforward, and I actually finished this before finishing [day 3](../day-03/).

[Today's challenge](http://adventofcode.com/2017/day/5) has us attempting to help the CPU escape from a maze of instructions. It's not quite a [Turing Machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing%20Machine), but it has that feeling of moving a read/write head up and down a tape acting on and changing the data found there.

I haven't written anything in C++ for over a decade. It sounds like there have been lots of interesting developments in the language since then, with C++11, C++14 and the freshly finalised C++17 standards (built-in parallelism in the STL!). I won't use any of those, but I thought I'd dust off my C++ and see what happened. Thankfully the Standard Template Library classes still did what I expected!
