 | 17 | +## How Contribute to This Project  | 
 | 18 | +Here are 3 quick and painless ways to contribute to this project:  | 
 | 19 | + | 
 | 20 | +* Add a program in any language. (A simple Hello World would be suffice.)  | 
 | 21 | +To do so, first create a issue with the task you are doing. For Ex. Issue - creating bubble sort in C. Add the HacktoberFest label in the issue and assign the issue to yourself. Create a pull request in response to that issue and finally submit it for review.  | 
 | 22 | + | 
 | 23 | +* How to name your branch?  | 
 | 24 | +	username_hello_world_in_c  | 
 | 25 | + | 
 | 26 | +	Also create a directory for any new programs if it doesn't exist.  | 
 | 27 | +	ex. hello_world, bubble_sort.  | 
 | 28 | +	Inside these directories you can create your own file with program_name.language_extension (hello_world.cpp)  | 
 | 29 | + | 
 | 30 | +Finally, wait for it to be merged!  |
