## Introduction
Data structures & algorithms are an essential part of programming. They both fall under the fundamentals of computer science. Understanding these gives us the advantage of writing better and more efficient code in less time. They are key topics when it comes to acing software engineering interview questions, so as developers, we must have knowledge of data structures and algorithms.

## Data Structures
In computer science, a data structure is a data organization, management, and storage format that enables efficient access and modification.
Data structure is a way or a format in which your data is stored in memory for efficient usage and retrieval.
## Algorithms
An algorithm is a set of instructions that are used to accomplish a task, such as finding the largest number in a list, removing all the red cards from a deck of playing cards, sorting a collection of names, or figuring out an average movie rating from just your friends' opinions.
Algorithms are not limited to computers. They are like a set of step-by-step instructions or an even a recipe, containing things you need, steps to do, the order to do them, conditions to look for, and expected results.

## Support
Check [Contribution](/AlgorithmsAndDataStructure/CONTRIBUTING.md) Guide Before Contribution.
## Contributing
Before submitting a bug, please do the following:
Check [Contribution](/AlgorithmsAndDataStructure/CONTRIBUTING.md) Guide Before Contribution.
- Create separate issues for Python and C++.
- You can only work on issues that you have been assigned to.
- Use Flake8 locally for linting Python Code. `pip install flake8`.
(We have linting checks so if your code fails we will not merge the PR.)
