This project provides a set of algorithms implemented in c/c++ programming languages which acts as reference implementation for fun (and could be for profit). The intention is to illustrate algorithms and data structures with a strong focus on clarity and clean design.

The prime motivation is to illustrate implementation of algorithms in c/c++ programming languages to enable better understanding and language implementation of the same. Optimization is not the prime focus, so whenever required clarity will override optimization within the implementation.

This framework supports Gnu/Linux operating system, but with little change it can be made to build on any of the POSIX compliant operating system. The following depencies are required to use this project; namely

• g++ v3.8+ or clang v3.3+
• make

Although the installation for various GNU/Linux distributions differ but the dependencies are easily available on any one of them.

The following commands were tested on Ubuntu 14.04 but things should be similar (if not same) on other releases and Debian.

The following commands needs to be as a system administrator or with sudo (as shown below) so that the relavent packages are installed in the system.

If your system is not updated then probably it is a good idea to do that before installing anything else.

sudo apt-get update

In case you prefer the GNU GCC compler then install g++

sudo apt-get install -y g++

Alternatively, you can install the clang compiler as well

sudo apt-get install -y clang-3.5

The following commands were tested on Centos 7 but things should be similar (if not same) on other releases and Fedora or Redhat.

If your system is not updated then probably it is a good idea to do that before installing anything else.

sudo yum update

In case you prefer the GNU GCC compler then install g++

sudo yum install -y gcc-c++

Alternatively, you can install the clang compiler as well

sudo yum install -y clang

The versions gcc (g++) and clang which are installed in your (rpm based) operating needs to meet the previously mentioned criteria. At the time of this writing CentOS 7, Fedora 23, RHEL 7 are the latest releases and works well. Anything earlier may not work for you unless you are willing to get under the hood and build things on your own.

If your system is not updated then probably it is a good idea to do that before installing anything else.

sudo pacman -Syu

In case you prefer the GNU GCC compler then install g++

sudo pacman -Sy gcc-multilib

Alternatively, you can install the clang compiler as well

sudo pacman -Sy clang

After you are done setting up the development environment the build is pretty straight-forward (see below).
