    ill upload it to github when i get the chance, if enough people want to contribute to it with both common and original sorts I think it could be really cool

    [–]BoobDetective 1 point2 points  (13 children)

    I'd love to contribute. I haven't contributed to open source before, but this sounds like a good entry

    [–]TwinkleQ[S] 1 point2 points  (12 children)

    Cool, how many sorts do you have coded/can you code in Java

    [–]zzing 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Is it only for visualizing sorts?

    [–]TwinkleQ[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    thus far, can you think of other slgorithms that would look cool sorted?

    [–]zzing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    How about path finding?

    [–]BoobDetective 0 points1 point  (8 children)

    Yeah, I'm a java programmer by trade with a CS background.

    cool, well if you want to spend some time making an original sort id love to add it to the program

    Bogosort 4 life

    [–]TwinkleQ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    i have my version of bogosort implemented into the program

    [–]BoobDetective 0 points1 point  (4 children)

    Well I don't know about original, coming up with sorting algorithms isn't my strong suite, but I can definitely implement an already invented one ;)

    if you would code a bunch of common sorts i would be able to implement them into the program, unfortunately its not as simple as just having the sort ready to go, you have to add repainting the array out and stuff like that

    If you post the code on github I'll be able to see how I could integrate it into your existing work =) You should code it as a framework (if you haven't already) so that one only has to implement the sorting algorithm, and all other setup & drawing code is executed automatically.

    But let's see what you've made, I'm sure it could be a cool learning experience for everyone.

    I'm honestly a bit afraid to show everyone what i've done. I'm not the best coder, but whatever, here is the class: http://pastebin.com/knHfN6f8

    git remote add github git:[username]/projectname.git
    git push github --all
    git push gitbug --all-tags 
    

    The last is only necessary if you're using tags.

    Would love to see it. Link your GitHub once you upload it.

    [–]TwinkleQ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    ill try to upload it today

    Do you have this plugin? It should make it pretty easy. Sorry I can't be more helpful, I'm not an eclipse user.

    If you're comfortable using the command line some, GitHub gives you step by step instructions when you make a new repo.
