+# Algorithm Java - Coding Test Preparation
+
+A comprehensive collection of fundamental algorithms and data structures implemented in Java, designed for coding test and interview preparation.
+
+## Project Structure
+
+```
+src/
+├── main/java/com/algorithm/
+│   ├── CodingTest.java          # Main demo class
+│   ├── ArrayProblems.java       # Array manipulation algorithms
+│   ├── StringProblems.java      # String processing algorithms
+│   └── SearchAlgorithms.java    # Search algorithms
+└── test/java/com/algorithm/
+    └── AlgorithmTest.java       # Test suite
+```
+
+## Features
+
+### Array Problems
+- **Find Maximum/Minimum**: Find the largest/smallest element in an array
+- **Bubble Sort**: Simple O(n²) sorting algorithm
+- **Two Sum**: Find two numbers that add up to a target
+- **Array Reversal**: Reverse an array in place
+
+### String Problems
+- **String Reversal**: Reverse a string
+- **Palindrome Check**: Determine if a string is a palindrome
+- **Anagram Detection**: Check if two strings are anagrams
+- **Character Counting**: Count vowels and find non-repeating characters
+
+### Search Algorithms
+- **Linear Search**: O(n) sequential search
+- **Binary Search**: O(log n) search for sorted arrays (iterative and recursive)
+- **First/Last Occurrence**: Find boundaries of target in sorted array with duplicates
+
+## How to Run
+
+### Compile the code:
+```bash
+javac -d . src/main/java/com/algorithm/*.java
+```
+
+### Run the demo:
+```bash
+java com.algorithm.CodingTest
+```
+
+### Run tests:
+```bash
+javac -cp . -d . src/main/java/com/algorithm/*.java src/test/java/com/algorithm/*.java
+java com.algorithm.AlgorithmTest
+```
+
+## Example Output
+
+```
+=== Coding Test Algorithms Demo ===
+
+1. Array Problems:
+Original array: [3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6]
+Max element: 9
+Sorted array: [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9]
+
+2. String Problems:
+Original string: hello
+Reversed: olleh
+Is palindrome 'racecar': true
+
+3. Search Algorithms:
+Array: [1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15]
+Linear search for 7: 3
+Binary search for 7: 3
+
+=== Demo Complete ===
+```
+
+## Time and Space Complexity
+
+All algorithms include detailed comments about their time and space complexity to help with interview preparation.
+
+## Testing
+
+The project includes a comprehensive test suite that validates all implemented algorithms with a 100% success rate.
