Yep, down at the moment. In the meantime, we can enjoy this classic algorithm dance. :)

Classic!

(I can't get to the site right now) They have a cool implementation that uses es6 generators to interrupt the algorithms as they run, and pass the algorithm state up to the visualization system.

Other algorithm / data structure visualization sites:

- http://will.thimbleby.net/algorithms/doku.php - uses a javascript interpreter that allows the visualizer to show local variables and pause/rewind the algorithm execution

- http://rosulek.github.io/vamonos/demos/ - marks up the algorithm code with line numbers so that it can show how the visualization corresponds to pseudocode

I was so excited to see these animations but I'm getting an application error. There's something about seeing algorithms in action that makes them stick. Hope to see this up and running again soon!

Yep.. boo :(

This will hold you over while we wait!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPRA0W1kECg

Yeah, looks like the site's not keeping up with demand. I might have to try it out in a couple of days.

It is loading fine now.

I'm getting this as well.

I'm on Chrome version 59.0.3071.47 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
