This example visualizes the recursive quicksort algorithm sorting a small numeric array, showing the step-by-step partition process and final sorted order. The code defines a `quickSort` function that selects a pivot from the middle of the array, uses two pointers to swap elements out of place, and recursively sorts the subarrays on either side. It demonstrates the algorithm’s logic directly in JavaScript with console output, using no external libraries. The rendering approach is textual, logging the unsorted and sorted arrays to the console, while the source data is a hardcoded array `[7, 0, 2, 1, 9, 2]`. The example highlights the algorithm’s core mechanics rather than a graphical chart.

Quicksort II

This visualization shows every recursive step of quicksort on a shuffled array of 200 numbers, with each row representing the array state before recursing into a partition. Red lines mark the chosen pivots, while gray lines indicate inactive elements. The code uses d3.v3 with SVG rendering, employing ordinal and linear scales to map array positions and rotated line marks. The quicksort algorithm is implemented in JavaScript, generating the level data and pivot metadata for each state.

Quicksort

The visualizer shows the Quicksort algorithm sorting a shuffled array of 240 items as a fan of lines, with the current pivot highlighted in red. Each step is animated via a timer, swapping line positions to reflect array changes. The code uses d3.v3 with a linear scale for angular displacement and an ordinal scale for horizontal positioning, rendering SVG lines and driving the animation through `setInterval`. The data is generated by a Fisher–Yates shuffle and processed through the quicksort function.

Quicksort I

A visualization of the quicksort algorithm shows each row as a snapshot of the array before a partition operation, with lines rotated to represent values. Orange lines indicate left-side elements greater than the pivot that need moving right, while green lines show right-side elements less than the pivot needing movement left. Built with D3 v3, it renders 200 shuffled numbers as SVG lines across multiple rows, each animated on mouseover to display values relative to the pivot using ordinal and linear scales, and uses the `quicksort` function to generate partition states.

Quicksort IV

The visualization animates the quicksort algorithm on 200 shuffled values, rendering each value as a rotated vertical line whose angle reflects its magnitude. A red line marks the active pivot, while black lines indicate the current partition and gray lines show inactive regions. Using D3.js v3 and SVG, the animation replays recorded swap and partition actions in reverse order, updating line positions and classes via `d3.transition`. The code generates the action log by recursively partitioning the array, then drives the playback through chained transition callbacks.

Quicksort V

A visualization of quicksort on 100 elements, where each horizontal row represents the array state after a single swap and colored lines trace each element’s positional movement through the sorting process. The code uses d3.v3 with custom SVG path interpolators to render the straight and diagonal segments, and a cubehelix color scale to differentiate elements. Randomly shuffled data is generated with `d3.shuffle` and `d3.range`, and the quicksort algorithm is implemented manually to record swap operations.

Quicksort VI

An animated quicksort network visualizes the sorting process of 100 shuffled values, with time progressing on the vertical axis and each swap rendered as a colored path. The value-to-color mapping uses a cubehelix color scale. The animation is drawn on a Canvas via `d3.transition` and custom tweening, while a precomputed list of swaps drives the sequence. Pressing the Alt key slows the animation. The implementation uses d3.v3, including ordinal and linear scales, and a custom `quicksort` function to generate swap pairs.

Quicksort III

Two hundred vertical lines represent an array of shuffled numbers, each line rotated by its value. The animation plays out the swaps of the quicksort algorithm in reverse, showing the array gradually becoming disordered. The visualization uses D3 v3 with SVG line elements, a linear scale for rotation, and an ordinal scale for x-positioning. The quicksort function generates a list of swap pairs, which d3 transitions then animate sequentially, adjusting line transforms on each step.

array javascript

This example shows a minimal HTML page that sorts a JavaScript array of numbers in ascending order and logs the result to the browser console. The page relies on native JavaScript’s `Array.prototype.sort()` method with a comparator function, and outputs the sorted array using `console.dir()`. Styling is applied via a CSS rule for a large centered message, though no visual chart or WebGL rendering is present. The code demonstrates basic data manipulation with a plain array literal, but no external libraries or visualization APIs are used.
