Demo

Check out the VisualSort demo here!

Introduction

I saw a video on Youtube about visualizing sorting algorithms and became inspired to make them myself. So I did. Visual Sort is a program will let you visualize different sorting algorithms and generate beautiful videos along with sound. I used matplotlib to create the bargraphs and ffmpeg to create the video. This is a good way of seeing how the algorithms work to sort data and will help the user learn more by being able to peer into the inner workings.

VisualSort allows you to visualize 15+ different algorithms:
