+Yet Another Skiena Implementation
+
+About
+=====
+This is an ongoing project where I implemented various data structures and algorithms in C++, loosely following the content of the Alogirhtms Manual book by Steven Skiena.
+
+The code is written using standard C++ in Microsoft Visual Studio 2013. Code is tested using Google C++ framework.
+
+Data Structures (So Far)
+========================
+Singly/Doubly linked lists with iterators
+Binary tree
+Heap and Priority Queue, both regular and mutable (where you can change keys of existing elements)
+Binary search tree (BST)
+Dictionary based on BST
+Hash tables 
+  > Linear probing 
+  > Separate chaining 
+  > Hop Scotch
+Graph (adjacency list)
+Coming soon: Locality sensitive hashing (LSH)
+
+Algorithms
+==========
+Graph Algorithms: 
+  > BFS
+Coming soon: Approximate near neighbor search using LSH
+
+Authors and Contributors
+========================
+Right now, there is only one author: Saad Quader (@saq10002)
