Description of Change
This PR fixes and improves two example snippets in the "Self-test examples" section of CONTRIBUTING.md:
Improved quick_sort example
int(std::end(arr) - std::begin(arr)) - 1with the clearer and equivalent
arr.size() - 1.Fixed and optimized is_number_on_array example
sizeof(arr) / sizeof(int)which is incorrect for vectors and results in invalid iteration.arr.size().These changes enhance correctness, clarity, make it more beginner-friendly, and implement modern C++ best practices in the contribution examples.
