Some tips to solve https://adventofcode.com/.

Get input.txt

A Makefile rule:

YEAR=2024

input.txt: ../cookie.txt
	DAY=$$(basename $$(pwd)); wget -O $@ --header="Cookie: $$(cat ../cookie.txt)" https://adventofcode.com/$(YEAR)/day/$${DAY##day}/input

Get content of ../cookie.txt (collect using Firefox developers / storage panel):

session=aaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbcccccccccccccddddddddddde1111111222222222333333333444444444555555555555

3   3
F=[] # Flat
for line in open(INPUT):
    numbers = list(map(int,line.split()))
    F.extend(numbers)
print(f"{F}")
[3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 3, 3, 9, 3, 3]
