Path Finding Visualization vs The Matrix Mentor

Want to see various pathfinding algorithms in action? With Path Finding Visualization, you can visualize, in action, six different algorithms. This app allows you to select your own starting and ending points, select the algorithm you want to use, and add walls in order to create boundaries. This app includes the following algorithms: Dijkstra's - Works by expanding outwards until it reaches the target node. Guaranteed to find the shortest path as long as there are not any negative weights. Bidirectional Dijkstra's - Dijkstra's algorithm from both sides. A* - Like Dijkstra's in that it favors nodes close to the starting point, but also favors nodes close to the ending point (heuristic). It does not guarantee the shortest path. A tie-breaker that prefers straight lines was included in order to prevent multiple nodes from having the same F values. Bidirectional A* - The A* algorithm from both sides. Breadth-First Search - Traverses through a graph one level at a time until it finds the target node. Since there are no weights, this algorithm does guarantee the shortest path. Depth-First Search - Traverses through a graph by going as deep as possible and then backtracking until it finds the target node. It does not guarantee the shortest path. Learning about or want to visualize any of the above algorithms in action? Download Path Finding Visualization today and have a better understanding of how each algorithm works.

Are matrices getting you down? Don’t worry… THE MATRIX MENTOR IS HERE TO HELP The Matrix Mentor provides a visual understanding of linear transformations. Where others may teach you the mathematical rules that can be hard to remember, our playground provides a visual and interactive demonstration of the inner workings. SCARED OF MATRICES? DON'T BE! At its core, The Matrix Mentor is a visual learning tool, designed to bring matrices from an abstract mathematical concept to a concrete application. Whether you think about vectors as 3D points or a RGB color value, the fundamentals hold true. - Experiment with different types of transformations - Discover how matrices interact with a given vector, or a whole grid of points - Develop your intuitive sense for reading matrices and linear transformations Do yourself a favour, and start playing with The Matrix Mentor today!
