Dec 15th was my favorite. I kept making a logical error and had to restart, so it took me way to long, but I really enjoyed it.

The 16th was just cheeky, after I spent way to much time on the 15th it was nice to have something like that!

It's been 16+ years since I did any probability or combinations and permutations, so it was nice to brush off that part of my brain, not that I did any of them well, but it should serve me well when my kids start doing them and ask me for help.
