Describe your change:

Add implementation of the Boyer–Moore Majority Vote Algorithm to find the majority element in a list. The solution includes type hints, proper docstrings, and doctests.

  • Add an algorithm
  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm
  • Add or change doctests
  • Documentation change
