* scamper
<u>'''Algorithm 1'''</u>
The algorithm for the script measures the speed of each mirrorlist and repository within the yum mirrorlist.
By using the ping command the script will capture the time for an icmp packet to return from the target destination
* running fedora for the first time
<u>'''Algorithm 2'''</u>
Another Algorithm that can implemented is to rearrange the mirrorlist according to location
''Note: This algorithm will not be as reliable as the first therefore time invested on this algorithm will be low''
The algorithm will extract the current location of the device via time zone and geographically locate each site's location
The algorithm will rearrange the database according to the closest site server.
