Advent of Ada/SPARK 2024 Results

At the end of November, we called the Ada and SPARK programmers community to take on a challenge for a good cause. For each person completing one of the Advent of Code exercises using the Ada programming language, AdaCore would donate $10 to the Ada Developers Academy. And for those willing to go the extra mile, AdaCore would donate $20 if the solution is implemented in SPARK.

We are now in January and it is time for the results!

We counted 21 participants in the forum thread, 213 exercises completed using Ada, and 6 using SPARK. This adds up to $2250 for the Ada Developers Academy!

Three special mentions are in order, Gautier de Montmollin, J.C. Moyer, and Derek Kingston who completed all 25 exercises!

Thank you all for your contribution,
