   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 some extra libraries (install with
  17 ```
  18 $ cabal install MissingH
  19 $ cabal install parsec-number
  20 $ cabal install cryptonite
  21 ```
  22 )
  23
  24 Compile the code with
  25 ```
  26 ghc --make advent01.hs
  27 ```
  28
  29 then run it as
  30 ```
  31 advent01
  32 ```
  33
  34 Build this readme file wth
  35 ```
  36 pandoc -s README.md > README.html
  37 ```
