Classic algorithms including Fizz Buzz, Bubble Sort, the Fibonacci Sequence, a Sudoku solver, and more.
Time and Space Complexity (Big O Notation)
All algorithms have a complexity known as Big O Notation, the more complex an algorithm, the less efficient it gets as more data is introduced. Listed below are the Big-O complexities listed from best to worst:
- O(1)
- O(log n)
- O(n)
- O(n * log n)
- O(n^2)
- O(2^n)
- O(n!)

Numbers put into the Sudoku puzzle: 769
Numbers that had to be backtracked due to a dead-end: 720
This graph is for both Breadth and Depth First Search ^
Breadth First Search - O(V + E)
The purpose of this algorithm is to search all neighbors before traversing further down the graph. A real world use-case of this is GPS navigation to find the shortest route to your destination.
[5, 3, 7, 2, 4, 8]
The purpose of this algorithm is to traverse an entire branch before backtracking to traverse a neighbor higher up the graph. A real world use-case of this is solving a puzzle with only one solution (eg: Sudoku solver)

just --listI will not be accepting pull requests to this repo for new algorithms as this project is more of a playground for my own learning and exploration of algorithms and not an exhaustive collection for reference. I will consider improvement PRs for existing algorithms however.
