Sorting algorithm visualizations were supposed to help us understand Big O notation and time complexity. Instead, we all collectively decided that bubble sort sounds like popcorn and merge sort sounds like a spaceship landing. The educational value? Zero. The entertainment value? Immeasurable.
Every CS student starts out trying to learn the differences between quicksort and heapsort, then ends up spending two hours listening to different sorting algorithms set to music like it's Spotify for nerds. Bonus points if you've watched the one where they sort to the tune of a popular song.
The bleeps and bloops are generated by assigning each array value a frequency, so you're literally hearing the data rearrange itself. It's oddly satisfying watching the chaos of bogosort sound like a dial-up modem having a seizure.
