 ## Overview
 
-The repository is a collection of implementation of a variety of algorithms implemented in C++. These algorithms span a variety of topics from computer science, mathematics and statistics, data science, machine learning, engineering, etc.. The implementations are meant to be a learning resource for educators and students. Hence, one may find more than one implementation for the same algorithm with different optimizations and different strategies used that would be documented therein.
