7 years ago It may be worth adding this to all of the sorting algorithms. At the very least, the "key" (or "legend" if you will) should be implemented as a component that can be used in case other sorting methods that are as difficult to follow as quick sort are requested or implemented.

Feature
Why is this feature being added?
It's currently difficult to tell what the different colors mean in the quick sort animation (orange = less than pivot, purple = greater than pivot).
What should your feature do?
Since there are already labels for 'pivot' and 'prior pivot', more labels could just add to the confusion. This feature should add a simple key below the algorithm that shows what an orange box means and what a purple box means.
