JavaScript-algorithms: Algorithms and data structures implemented in JavaScript
I would like to point out that a possible reason this repo is so popular is that Javascript is more accessible to more people than any other programming language today and this shows the demand to meet these programmers halfway and help further their education. I think most js devs know Javascript is a poor choice for this, but they have to walk before they can run.<p>I tend to think of Javascript as the language that fulfills the promises that BASIC never did.<p>If every student walking into a computer science course only knew Javascript, that would still be a massive improvement over the past where half the students didn't know any programming language at all or only some vastly underpowered ones like Logo or BASIC.
