I came from the series How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub, and I want to apply it right away, can you guide me in here.

Sure! First look through what functions are available and try to find one you could add. Then go ahead and open a pull request to add it!

I'm not really sure.. what do you mean by look through what functions are available and try to find one I could add, should I modify the one that are already in src? or should I make another different function?

Make another one :)

I'm not sure how to make a new one, earlier I'm looking in the issues if there is something I can help with, but it seems the issues open are not update anymore, and if I make a new issue or function, do I need to make my own test in the test folder as well? I'm sorry I'm not what should I do.

Follow the same process that I show in the course, just with a different function. So yes, you'll need to open your own issue with your own suggestion of a function, then when I accept the idea, you can make a pull request that includes the function and tests for it.

Good luck!
