The Algorithms is an Open source resource for learning Data Structures & Algorithms and their implementation in any programming language.
History
The Algorithms was founded by Anup Kumar Panwar and Chetan Kaushik in 2016 as a resource for their college students where they can learn the implementation of any Data Structure and Algorithm in the programming language of their preference.[1] The founders discovered that the college students had a good understanding of how the algorithms work but they faced difficulties while writing code for the same. So The Algorithms was started with just 3 popular programming languages C, C++ and Python where the students can just read the code and understand it. Later the students themselves started adding various algorithms to the repositories.
Overview
Today The Algorithms is one of the biggest Open Source Organisations on Github.[2] It has more than 100 active members[3] on Github and 600 members on the Gitter channel. It is available in 22 Programming Languages. The most popular ones are:
Recently it has started writing plain text explanations of the algorithms in different languages which include English, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish and Nepali.
Programming Languages Available
C, C++, C#, Dart, Elixir, Elm, F#, Go, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Jupyter, Kotlin, MATLAB, OCaml, PHP, Python, R, Ruby, Rust, Scala, Swift
