plentiful

A bountyful amount of algorithms ripe for the picking, choose your poison. runs with node.

import { Plentiful } from "plentiful";

Plentiful.sorts.timSort();

Plentiful();

This repository is a collection of many if not all common and popular algorithms implemented and rewritten in JavaScript. The list in constantly expanding-- feel free to contribute!

An algorithm is an unambiguous specification of how to solve a class of problems. It is a set of rules and steps that precisely define a set or sequence of operations.

Each algorithm has its own separate README containing relevant information and explanations and links for further reading.

Installation

This is a Node.js package available through the npm registry.

Before installing, download and install Node.js. Node.js 0.10 or higher is required.

Installation is done using the npm install command:

$ npm install -g plentiful

Security Issues

If you discover a security vulnerability in Plentiful, please see Security Policies and Procedures.

Quick Start

The quickest way to get started with Plentiful is to install the package to your project and then call and use the algorithm you are looking for your needs:

import { Plentiful } from "plentiful";

Plentiful.sorts.timSort();

Plentiful();

Otherwise, for research or testing purposes you can install Plentiful globally and then use the implementType implementType which will apply the best algorithm for the given task:

Install the Plentiful repo:

$ npm install -g plentiful

Call any algorithm you can think of:

$ plentiful timsort arrayToBeSorted

Utilize implementType on any data set and find the best algorithm to use:

$ plentiful implementType $data
$ timsort(data)? [Y/n]
$ ...

Install dependencies:

$ npm install

Philosophy

Just find the right algorithm and have fun, don't waste your time porting to a C++ library when you can call any common and popular algorithm with Plentiful!

Tests

To run the test suite, first install the dependencies, then run npm test:

$ npm install
$ npm test
