What does this PR do?

I implemented the Interpolation Search algorithm using Python. This algorithm has similar characteristics to binary search, but the algorithm works differently. The algorithm uses a "probe formula" to help calculate the index of the target we have to search. I newly created this program and I am submitting it for Hacktoberfest 2023, please let me know if there are any improvements.

Related PRs and Issues is any

I implemented this algorithm with the inspiration of learning different sorting algorithms in an online grader called DMOJ. I newly created this program and I am submitting it for Hacktoberfest 2023, please let me know if there are any improvements. No related PRs of me making this algorithm previously.
