Hacktoberfest 2021 - Implement algorithms or data structures, fix existing ones and more!

[poyea]

The annual Hacktoberfest is underway! Register on Hacktoberfest's website and open 4 pull requests during October 2021 to plant a tree or receive the swags!

What's more, you can also fix any existing bugs, improve any documentation (open issues in TheAlgorithms/Python) and provide better implementations for certain algorithms! Feel free to inform the community by filling an issue and start hacking! If you're new to contributing code, please read our Contribution Guidelines for an overall understanding and ask questions on the internet - Google, StackOverflow or our Discord/Gitter.

TheAlgorithms has repositories for other programming languages, so find your language and start coding there!

What you can do to participate

1. Read our Contribution Guidelines
2. Comment below or open an issue (for big ideas you may want the community to know) on your new implementations, fixes or functionalities
3. Start hacking! 🐱‍💻👩🏾‍💻👩‍💻👨🏻‍💻👨🏽‍💻
4. Open a pull request for your contribution
5. Wait until your pull requests get reviewed or merged! In the meantime, you can review someone else's pull requests too

Hi! I would like to contribute, this is my first hacktoberfest. I was thinking about a linear motion physical quantities calculator. Providing acceleration, time, velocities, or displacement; each algorithm must calculate the unknown quantity. I believe it should be in the physics folder. I've already read the Contribution Guidelines. Waiting for the answer!

Hey, @poyea
It would be a great opportunity in contributing to TheAlgorithms.

Hello, this is my first Hacktoberfest. I would like to contribute by making an algorithm which tries to find the Taylor Expansion of a given function, around a given point and to degreen n. I did not find such an algorithm in the repo, please notify me if it already exists.

Hi @poyea, this is my first Hacktoberfest. I would like to contribute by implementing an cryptography algorithm named "a symmertic key encryption technique using genetic algorithm". I believe it should be in the ciphers folder. I have already read Contribution Guidelines. Please let me know if I can be a participant.

I would like to contribute my adding ML algorithms written from scratch . It will help the beginners to understand the working of algorithm

[CarolineHussey]

Hi! I would love to contribute to this project for Hacktoberfest. Looking at the capitalize function I could actually expand this by adding a function to capitalize each letter, or convert to lower case. I could also look at changing this to a class with methods if that would be helpful?

[naveennamani]

Do my PR needs to be accepted or atleast given a hacktoberfest-accepted label for it to count? And does it needs to be done before Oct 31? Because seeing the number of PRs and the unresponsive maintainers I don't think my PR will be merged in time, but hoping my effort won't go in vain.
Please check my PR #5519
