   6 Code to solve the [Advent of Code](http://adventofcode.com/2016/) puzzles. This year, I'm trying to use the puzzles as a prompt to learn [Haskell](https://wiki.haskell.org/Haskell).
   7
   8 [Learn you a Haskell](http://learnyouahaskell.com/chapters), [Introduction to Haskell 98](https://www.haskell.org/tutorial/index.html), and [Hackage](https://hackage.haskell.org/) are good resources.
   9
  10 I'm using the basic Haskell Platform installation (install with
  11 ```
  12 $ sudo aptitude install haskell-platform
  13 ```
  14 ).
  15
  16 I'm also using the `MissingH` library (install with
  17 ```
  18 $ cabal install MissingH
  19 ```
  20 )
  21
  22 Compile the code with
  23 ```
  24 ghc --make advent01.hs
  25 ```
  26
  27 then run it as
  28 ```
  29 advent01
  30 ```

  32 Build this readme file wth
  33 ```
  34 pandoc -s README.md > README.html
  35 ```
