Sample files guidelines

Some of the code examples in this repository use sample files located in the Sample Files directory.

Files in this directory should be listed in the README, and should meet the standards for a shared sample file.

• Files must be created for this repository and not copied from other sources.
• Files should be reusable across multiple examples. Single-use files can be located in the code directory for their respective languages.
• Files that can be referenced elsewhere should be linked instead.
• Files should not exceed a size of 10 MB.
• Media files such as MP3 or WAV files should be located in the directory for sample media.

Note: Adding a file should be a last resort, after considering all other options such as generating the file in the code, allowing the user to specify their own file, or linking to a known source.
