I attempted Advent of Code in 25 different languages last year. Learn X in Y was extremely helpful for picking up basic syntax etc. when trying to speed learn enough of a new language to get by each day.

(Made it to day 16 before Christmas Crunch kicked in, but it was a great challenge)

I'm doing that this year!

I'm cheating a bit by putting the languages I know at the end, but it's still a really fun challenge. Doesn't really help that it's exam week though
