PatOnTheBack 897f1d0fb4 Improved Formatting and Style of Math Algos (#960)
* Improved Formatting and Style

I improved formatting and style to make PyLama happier.

Linters used:

- mccabe
- pep257
- pydocstyle
- pep8
- pycodestyle
- pyflakes

* Create volume.py

This script calculates the volumes of various shapes.

* Delete lucasSeries.py

* Revert "Delete lucasSeries.py"

This reverts commit 64c19f7a6c.

* Update lucasSeries.py
