+## Day 14: Restroom Redout
+
+Visit the Advent of Code website for more information on this puzzle at:
+
+**Source:** https://adventofcode.com/2024/day/14<br>
+**Status:** Complete ⭐⭐
+
+## Code
+
+### `findEasterEgg.ts`
+
+- **`findEasterEgg()`** - Counts the no. of seconds before robots display (form) the Christmas Tree easter egg.
+   > **NOTE:** I got tips and hints from about the figure of the Christmas tree [here](https://elixirforum.com/t/advent-of-code-2024-day-14/68091/3) after trying to observe for a 🎄 pattern in grid renders per second iteration.
+
+### `safetyFactor.ts`
+
+- **`calculateSafetyFactor()`** - Counts the safety factor after `params.seconds` of simulating moving the robots.
+
+### `board.ts`
+
+**Board** class
+
+- Manages the `Grid`-like 2D string array, methods, and properties in which robots run
+- **`create()`** - Creates a blank `this.length` x `this.width` board, clearing
+- **`findQuadrants()`** - Finds the four (4) main quadrants of `this.grid`, each containing a set of inclusive `start` and `end` coordinates.
+- **`getQuadrant()`** - Finds the quadrant `ID` of a `Point` within the `this.grid` 2D array.
+- **`moveRobot()`** - Moves a robot from a tile and updates the current and new tile's robot count
+- **`setRobot()`** - Sets a new robot into the `Board`'s robots list and marks its position in `this.grid[][]` array
+- **`setTileValue()`** - Sets the string value in the 2D `this.grid[][]` array
+- **`simulateRobotsWalk()`** - Move (walk) the robots by updating their positions by velocity by `seconds` times.
+- **`viewQuadrants()`** - Draws categorized symbols per quadrant on a temporary 2D array for visualization.
