List of Algorithms and Data Structures implementations in R

Idea

Place to collectively create R implementations of algorithms from scratch

Why?

• It is a good way to learn how to write functions in R
• When you interview for Data Science positions, you will be likely to asked how to implement X. Example, how do you create a power function (exponentiating by squaring)

Thank you Heather Turner for the resources!

Some ideas of algorithms to be included:

• Exponentiation by Squaring
• Simple Sort (Bubble Sort, Insertion Sort, Merging Sort, ...)
• Difference of Squares
