Suggestion: "Typical Uses" column in Overview table #41

Closed ADTC closed 6 years ago

ADTC commented 6 years ago

Would it be possible for you to add a column called "Typical Uses" in the table in Overview? Perhaps to briefly mention where the algorithm is typically used (for example "diff utility, Git reconciliation" for LCS).

Not sure if you will have or can find this info. It will be helpful to pick out the algorithm best suited for the user's needs.

Hi, Thank you for the suggestion. I just started a column, although for now I don't have a lot to fill.. Best regards,
