The best prep is going back and completing previous years, gives you a good idea of what scaffolding may be useful.
Reading in maps into arrays (like today) is a common theme.
(I don't bother with any pre-written code or scaffolding but I will go and copy/paste from previous submissions if I realise there's a useful chunk of time that could be saved.)
If this year is like any of the previous ones they'll be some form of a pseudo computer that you need to implement that will come back again and again (and slowly be built up), so there will be some reuse built in.
