Show HN: ExCode, a site to show algorithms in any language (in progress)

excode.io

I should clarify, the site doesn't automatically convert code from one language to another. It's just meant to organize code from many different languages together.

So, for example, you can see how quicksort might be written in each language (http://excode.io/code/7/quick-sort/swift) assuming someone has uploaded the relevant code

This sounds similar to RosettaCode (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code).

Yup, it is. I didn't find out about Rosetta Code until over halfway through making this site, but I decided to keep working on it since Rosetta code lacks features I thought were helpful. Thought it would be nice to add voting, comments, editing, categories, etc.

Hard to compete with Rosetta's amount of code, though :)
