## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 65/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 73, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3486, "days_push": 164, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases, no_license
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A collection of Go programming challenges where each challenge folder contains a README and test files to implement. Contributors submit pull requests with solutions, and the fastest or most elegant ones are merged into the repository.

## Use cases
- practice go programming with exercises
- prepare for go coding interviews
- learn algorithms by implementing them in go
- find elegant go solutions to compare against
- contribute to open source via hacktoberfest
- improve go performance and benchmarking skills

## When to choose
- you want hands-on Go practice with real tests and benchmarks
- you want to compare your solution against community-optimized answers
- you need small algorithmic katas for interview prep in Go

## When to avoid
- you need a production library or framework
- you want structured tutorials or courses rather than self-directed challenges
- you work in a language other than Go

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: testing, benchmarking, developer-tools
- domain: education, programming-languages, tutorials
- platform: go, cli
- tags: coding-exercises, go-challenges, kata, interview-practice, hacktoberfest, community-solutions, algorithms
