Sorting algorithms are the building blocks of computer science — fundamental procedures that organize data into a specified order. While the concept is simple, the different strategies for achieving it vary dramatically in efficiency, elegance, and behavior. Sorting Algorithm Visualizer brings 8 algorithms to life with animated bar charts, color-coded operations, and comparative performance analysis.

Choose from Bubble Sort (repeatedly swaps adjacent elements), Selection Sort (finds minimum and places it at front), Insertion Sort (builds sorted array one element at a time), Merge Sort (divides and conquers recursively), Quick Sort (partitions around a pivot), Heap Sort (uses binary heap structure), Shell Sort (gap-based insertion sort), and Cocktail Sort (bidirectional bubble sort).

Each visualization uses color-coded bars: amber bars are currently being compared, red bars are being swapped, green bars are in their final sorted position, and purple bars remain unsorted. The visual feedback makes algorithmic behavior immediately obvious — you can see how Bubble Sort slowly moves large values to the end, while Quick Sort quickly partitions the array.

Three data arrangements — Random, Nearly Sorted, and Reversed — demonstrate how different algorithms perform on different inputs. Merge Sort performs consistently on all arrangements, while Quick Sort may struggle on nearly sorted data without good pivot selection. Adjust the array size (10-60) and animation speed to match your viewing preference.
