Unlock the world of algorithms with Algorithm++! Visualize, listen, and master the logic behind sorting algorithms. Whether you are a Computer Science student preparing for exams, a developer brushing up for technical interviews, or an enthusiast who enjoys satisfying visualizations, Algorithm++ is the ultimate educational tool. Visualize & Customize Watch 16 different sorting algorithms in action. Use the dynamic sliders to adjust the sorting speed and change the array size from 10 to 100 items. Experience the difference between O(n²) and O(n log n) visually. Hear the Algorithms (Sonification) Don't just watch—listen! Algorithm++ features a real-time audio oscillator that generates sound based on value comparisons and swaps. Hear the chaotic noise of a random array transform into a satisfying, rising scale as it gets sorted. Inspect the Code Learn how it works under the hood. View the actual Swift source code for every algorithm with beautiful syntax highlighting. Perfect for understanding the implementation details. Master Big O Complexity Get instant access to Time Complexity and Space Complexity data for every algorithm. Understand the efficiency trade-offs between different methods. Test with Real-World Patterns Algorithms behave differently based on input data. Use the "Data Patterns" feature to test sorting on: Random: The standard chaos. Sorted: See how algorithms handle already-sorted data. Reversed: The worst-case scenario for many algorithms. Almost Sorted: Watch Insertion Sort shine! Few Unique: Visualize sorting with repeated values. Included Algorithms: From the basics to the advanced, and even the "joke" sorts: Basic: Bubble, Selection, Insertion Efficient: Quick Sort, Merge Sort, Heap Sort, Shell Sort Educational: Cocktail Shaker, Comb, Odd-Even, Gnome, Cycle, Pancake, Stooge Non-Comparative: Radix Sort (LSD) Bonus: Bogo Sort (Good luck!) Features: Clean, modern SwiftUI interface. Interactive controls (Pause, Resume, Step). Mute/Unmute functionality. Detailed algorithm information cards. Dark Mode support.

Algoritmia
Read full descriptionHide full description
Algoritmia is a visual tool for designing, writing, and running algorithms. Built for students and teachers learning or teaching programming, computational logic, and algorithm design. Create flowcharts by dragging classic shapes onto the canvas, or write the algorithm directly in pseudocode — the app converts between the two representations live. Run the algorithm step by step, watch how variables change, and review the visual output. FEATURES • Flowchart and pseudocode synced in real time. • Complete control structures: conditionals, loops (for/while), multi-way selection (switch/case) and decisions with up to 3 branches. • Visual step-by-step execution with a halo on the active component and the matching editor line highlighted. • Built-in trace table: each step shows variables and outputs in a single row. Exportable to CSV and PDF. • In-app help with reference of all built-in functions and operators (sqrt, round, length, concat, and more). • Pre-loaded examples: factorial, fibonacci, even or odd, max of three, multiplication table, series sum, sum and maximum of an array, 2D table. • 17 UI languages, with pseudocode keywords localized in the 14 languages with established pedagogical tradition. • Folder structure to organize your algorithms. • Import and export individual files (.dpa) or full collections (.zip). • Export the flowchart to PNG, the full document to PDF, or copy the pseudocode to the clipboard. • Light and dark theme follows the system setting. WHO IS IT FOR First-year programming students, teachers of algorithms and computational logic, and self-learners who want to visualize the flow of their ideas before coding them in a real language. PRIVACY Algoritmia works without a user account, without sign-in, and without sending your algorithms to any server. All information stays on your device. We do not collect personal data.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Algorithm++ at Free against Algoritmia's $1.99. Algoritmia's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.1). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
