For example, new solutions for a problem, different representations for a graph data structure or algorithm designs with different complexity but **identical implementation** of an existing implementation is not allowed. Please check whether the solution is already implemented or not before submitting your pull request. **Improving comments** and **writing proper tests** are also highly welcome.
