PowerShell Algorithms and Data Structures
Algorithms and data structures implemented in PowerShell with explanations and links to further readings
This is a port of https://github.com/trekhleb/javascript-algorithms
This repository contains PowerShell based examples of many popular algorithms and data structures.
Each algorithm and data structure has its own separate README with related explanations and links for further reading (including ones to YouTube videos).

A data structure is a particular way of organizing and storing data in a computer so that it can be accessed and modified efficiently. More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data.
- Linked List
- Queue
- Stack
- Hash Table
- Graph (both directed and undirected)
- Disjoint Set
Algorithms
An algorithm is an unambiguous specification of how to solve a class of problems. It is a set of rules that precisely define a sequence of operations.
