I am tackling the Advent of Code challenges in Haskell. In particular, Advent of Code #10 was fun (spoilers clicking on that link, but no spoilers in this blog post itself). Part two required using memoization to be solved, and I had already used memoization in other programming languages but not in Haskell.
