Description
I'm creating this issue to build a search engine in python seeing that it is not here. Just like google, given an input of documents and a search term, we would find the documents that contain this term, and rank them based on an importance score
I would like to contribute by adding code for this to the repository. Kindly assign me this issue.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the repository structure and existing Python examples to determine where a search-engine feature could belong. The issue does not name an entry point, files, or tests, so maintainer guidance is needed to define the scope; done would require an agreed implementation that searches documents and ranks matching results by importance.
