The C++ STL is one of the most complete and reusable algorithm libraries available.
This single header file brings 80% of that functionality to C99 in a non-intrusive way.
There are no new data structures. Just include the library and call functions on C arrays.
"algorithm libraries" is unspecified and https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm says "The algorithms library defines functions for a variety of purposes (e.g. searching, sorting, counting, manipulating) that operate on ranges of elements. Note that a range is defined as [first, last) where last refers to the element past the last element to inspect or modify."
You might want to clarify this.
"A range of elements" here does not specify if or if not the underlying bits are continuous memory, so you might want to clarify that as well.

"algorithm libraries" in that paragraph refers to a library of useful computer science algorithms, not any narrow C++ definition.
Ranges are a tool to implement algorithm, not the definition of what the library does. For example,
swapdoes not operate on ranges.I'll consider adding a link. It would be helpful as documentation gets filled in.
Thanks for feedback.
