Getting Started

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

Git for cloning the repository or contributing.
Python 3.x to run the package and snippets.
pip for installing the PySnippets package.

Installation

To install PySnippets as a Python package, follow these steps:

Install the package via pip (assuming the package is published on PyPI):
```
pip install pysnippets
```
If the package is still under development, you can install it directly from the GitHub repository:
```
pip install git+https://github.com/gdgmit/PySnippets.git
```
Once installed, you can import and use snippets in your Python projects.

Usage

After installing the package, you can start using the snippets in your project:

# Example: Using a string manipulation snippet
from pysnippets.strings import reverse_string

reversed_str = reverse_string("hello")
print(reversed_str)  # Output: 'olleh'

Explore other categories and snippets, such as file handling, math utilities, and more, by navigating the package’s modules.

Example Snippets

String Manipulation: Functions like reverse_string, capitalize_first, etc.
File Handling: Utilities for reading, writing, and managing files.
Data Structures: Custom implementations of common data structures.

Check the full documentation for details on each snippet's functionality and usage examples.
