+## ▶️ Running an Algorithm
+
+Most algorithms in this repository can be executed directly from the command line.
+
+```bash
+python path/to/algorithm.py
+```
+
+For example:
+```bash
+python searches/binary_search.py
+```
+
+Many implementations also include examples, doctests, or assertions that demonstrate expected usage and output.
