subject: Day 6 of Advent of Code in Commodore 128 Basic

Hello Commodore fans,

You may have heard of the Advent of Code challenge.  For a bit of fun I
decided to do day 6 of the challenge on the Commodore 128 using its built
in Basic.  It took days to calculate but it was great to be able to
complete it on this machine.

I had to use Vice though as my real machine has a memory fault which I
need to get around to solving.  The advantage of Vice was that
I could easily transfer the code between the emulator and my Linux box to
put it in a github repo and on my website.

If you're interested here it is:

Best wishes
