Swift Algorithm Club is a project that implements a broad collection of algorithms and data structures in the Swift programming language, with clear commentary and educational intent. Its purpose is not primarily to be a utility library, but rather to teach the how and why behind algorithms—readers can study implementations, complexity, and design choices in a Swift context. The repository includes common classic algorithms (sorting, searching, trees, graphs, dynamic programming, etc.) and structures (queues, heaps, tries, balanced trees) along with writeups explaining them. Because it's in Swift, the code is idiomatic and leverages Swift language features and standard patterns, which helps learners see how algorithmic ideas map into modern code. Many of the algorithms come with test harnesses so you can run them and experiment.
Features
- Many algorithm / data structure implementations (e.g. binary search, quicksort, BFS, Dijkstra)
- Detailed explanations accompanying each implementation to illustrate how and why they work
- Swift-native style code, using modern Swift versions; updated compatibility with recent Swift versions
- Code is “ready for production” in many cases but meant to be adapted or learned from rather than drop-in library usage
- Organized by topic: data structures, algorithms, puzzles etc.
- Licensed under MIT (open source) so can be used, modified, and contributed to freely
