Sorting Algorithms

A collection of different types of sorting algorithms in diff languages. This repository is open to all. To help you out with your Hacktoberfest goals!!
All you need to do is just add any sorting algorithm of your choice in any language you like with only the condition that it hasn't already been added.

Guidelines

• Create a folder with the algorithm name and language used to implement it. ( Eg: Insertion Sort-C++ )
• Add a .txt file with the Algorithm and a solution file which contains the solution of the given problem.
• Add this file inside the folder with the name of the algorithm you have implemented. If not present then create a new folder with the name of the algorithm and add your own folder to it.
• You can also help maintain a single text file containing the detailed explanation of all the algorithms.

Since we restructured it,it does not contain a single file for the algorithm.

Steps

• Fork this repo (button on top)
• Star this repo (button on top)
• Clone on your local machine

git clone https://github.com/your-username/sorting-algorithms.git

• Create a new folder with the algorithm name and language.
• Add your algorithm and solution file in that folder.
• Commit and push

git add .
git commit -m 'Added algorithm-name'
git push origin master

• Create a new pull request from your forked repository
• And you are one step closer! 🤩

sorting-algorithms's Issues

Add any remaining Sorting Algorithm of your choice.

You can add any Sorting Algorithm of your choice in any language.

• Choose an algorithm that isn't already present in the repo.
• or implement the same algorithm in a different language.( Pls do check if its already present or not)
• or write a MD file with the explanation, theory, time and space complexities with examples.

What all to keep in mind

• Check the comments to make sure no one is already working on it. (Check the List Of Whats Done.md file)
• Comment the algorithm and language that you chose.
• Check the repo guidelines for steps and format and start working.
• you don't necessarily need to know how to code , you can even write algorithms and its explanations in a text file for those algos who are missing it and help us in documentation.
• Please refrain from adding spam PR's . They will be marked as invalid !!

Note

Since this repo is old, most of the algos are already present. But some not so common algos are still left to be implemented in various different languages. This might serve as a research assignment for some.

Add any Sorting Algorithm of your choice.

You can add any sorting algorithm of your choice in any language.

1. Choose an algorithm that isn't present in the repo.
   (Note: you can implement the same algorithm in a different language)
2. Check the comments to make sure no one is already working on it.
3. Comment the algorithm and language that you chose.
4. Check the repo guidelines for steps and format and start working.

Note : you don't necessarily need to know how to code , you can even write algorithms and its explanations in a text file for those algos who are missing it and help us in documentation.

Please refrain from adding spam PR's . I will mark them as invalid !!

Language specific packages

Is it possible to create packages for each language and have all language specific algorithms within the package ?
It might also be helpful to group it based on algorithms.

With increasing implementation it might get difficult to search
