Visualizing sorting algorithms, using the matplotlib library.

Algorithms covered so far:

Install

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run

python main.py function_name

Pass function name as a command line argument from list of functions above(in all lower case and spaces replaced by underscore).

For example:

python main.py quick_sort

If you want to add a new sorting algorithm:

1. Code the algorithm insorting.py.
2. Name the function appropriately, likequick_sort,bubble_sort.
3. While coding the function,do not use python lists. Instead, use anArray object. TheArray class is defined insorting.py. (See already implemented algorithms, for your reference)
4. TheArray object hasswap,set,get_len,get methods implemented. Feel free to implement any more, additional methods, that you may see fit.
5. Make sure you add the sorting algorithm to the Readme file!
6. Make sure your newly implemented algorithm works, by runningtest.py after appending it to the list of algorithms intest.py.
