Please note that this project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.

• General Rules
• All ▲lgorithms Structure
• Adding new algorithms
• Style
• Adding Documentation

• As much as possible, try to follow the existing format of markdown and code.

• Directories and files are all in lower case letter.
• Files are separated by an underscore (_) following the snake_case style.
• Directories in documentation are separated by a minus or hyphen (-) following kebeab-case style.

We follow this structure

• Make your pull requests to be specific and focused. Instead of contributing "several algorithms" all at once contribute them all one by one separately (i.e. one pull request for "Binary Search", another one for "Bubble Sort" and so on).
• Describe what you do in code using comments.

Please DO NOT EDIT CHANGELOG on your pull requests, this is must be edited by one of the write access maintainers when they going to drop a new release.

This repository follow the PEP8 Style Gide for Python, so make sure you lint your code before adding a new pull request.

Each .py file should have the following header. (no for testing files)

# -*- coding: UTF-8 -*-

# Binary search works for a sorted array.

#

If the algorithm is modified, this should be included there also.

# Contributed by: Carlos Abraham Hernandez
# Github: @abranhe
#
# Modified by: Your Name
# Github: @yourgithubusername

If the algorithm have been modified by multiple contributors, that should be included as follow.

# Contributed by: Carlos Abraham Hernandez
# Github: @abranhe
#
# Modifiers:
# Your Name, @yourgithubusername
# Your friend's name, @yourfriendongithub

Please make sure if you add an algorithm, you also add the required documentation for it the /docs directory.

Follow some of the examples already added.

If you are modifying an algorithm make sure you add a benchmark using Repl.it for the maintainers to have it easy to review it.

Make sure you start ⭐️ the project and follow @abranhe
