Sorting, Sets, and Selection

  • Java Animations of Shellsort and Variants demonstrates variants of the shell sorting algorithm, including shell sort, shake sort, and brick sort, and it really is fun to watch.
  • Sorting Algorithms has demonstrations of many sorting algorithms, including bubble, selection, shaker, insertion, shell, heap, and quick sorts. Source code is available.
  • The Java Sorting Animation Page has demonstrations of bubble, selection, heap, insertion, merge, and quick sorts. It comes with complete descriptions for the algorithms. It is a very good way to understand the algorithms, since it indicates exactly what happens during each iteration and even allows you to undo steps.
