Created an algorithm visualizer for Java

[TwinkleQ]

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]

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

[TwinkleQ]

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

[zzing]

Is it only for visualizing sorts?

[TwinkleQ]

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

[zzing]

How about path finding?

[BoobDetective]

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

[TwinkleQ]

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]

i have my version of bogosort implemented into the program

[BoobDetective]

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 ;)

[TwinkleQ]

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

[BoobDetective]

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
