sortdemo project is a tool for sorting algorithm demonstrations.

Sortdemo generates sequences of image files (GIF or PNG) to visualize the steps of sorting algorithms.

It supports insertion, selection, bubble (4 variations), and quick sorts. The nature and the size of the initial list can be changed at will.

The generated sequences of images can be converted to nice animations.

It can be useful for generating educational documents such as Web pages, or simply used as a teaching tool.

Requirements:
gd libraries
enough disk space for generated gif files
ImageMagik
