I am sure some people will find these algorithms very useful.

But a review will be needed and must include Boost style tests and documentation of course.

Doing one algorithm first to confirm that you are meeting expectations of test depth, style and documentation?

Consult direct with the library author(s) too.

Good luck.

Paul
