I've found algorithms.js to be a nice collection: https://github.com/felipernb/algorithms.js

that looks awesome! maybe i'll PR a way to separate them into separate require's :)

The built in sorting algorithm (apparently it's mergesort in most browsers) in most implementations of JavaScript is often a little bit slow, so more sorting algorithms that people have implemented is a good thing. (I actually implemented Quicksort in Javascript and got about 5x better performance than Chrome's sort algorithm)

Yup! You should wrap Quicksort in a node module and PR us to add it to the list :)

I might clean the code up and do that! :)

No graph algorithms yet..? That's odd.

Sorry. They'll come sooner or later, but go ahead and PR if you know some!
