Stop Reading. Start Seeing. Algorithms finally click when you watch the data move. Algora turns 11 core computer-science algorithms into interactive, step-by-step animations you control β€” and explains the reasoning behind every important step. EVERY ALGORITHM, FIVE WAYS - LEARN β€” a plain-English breakdown, an everyday analogy, and its speed/memory character. - VISUALIZE β€” play, pause, step forward and back at 0.5Γ—, 1Γ—, or 2Γ—, with the β€œwhy” behind key moves. - PLAYGROUND β€” feed in your own data (or a preset that exposes a worst case) and run it. - QUIZ β€” lock in what you learned with next-step and complexity questions. - PATTERN β€” the core strategy, its strengths, and its constraints on one card. WHAT’S INSIDE - Sorting: Bubble, Selection, Insertion, Merge, Quick - Searching: Linear, Binary - Trees & Graphs: Breadth-First Search, Depth-First Search - Interview Patterns: Two Pointers, Sliding Window BUILT FOR - CS students who want intuition, not just pseudocode - Bootcamp learners filling the fundamentals gap - Anyone prepping for technical interviews who’s tired of re-reading the same explanations WHY IT WORKS Reading about Quick Sort tells you what a pivot is. Watching the pivot get placed β€” step by step, at your speed, with the reasoning on screen β€” is how it sticks. Every number in every animation reflects the real algorithm state. Nothing is faked. FREE TO START Bubble Sort, Binary Search, and BFS are free forever, plus a preview of every locked algorithm’s quiz. Unlock the full library with Algora Pro: $4.99/month, $29.99/year (save 50%), or $49.99 lifetime β€” one-time payment, yours forever.

About

PseudoLearn

Features
Read full description

PseudoLearn is a learning environment for writing and running pseudocode. Write an algorithm and step through it at four different speeds. As it runs, the code, the flowchart, the Nassi-Shneiderman structogram, the UML class diagram and the trace table all point at the same instruction. Watching them move together is what turns a list of steps into an idea you actually understand. WHAT'S INSIDE β€’ An editor with live diagnostics that mark the exact range of the problem as you type. β€’ Guided step-by-step execution with pace control. β€’ Flowchart, Nassi-Shneiderman structogram and UML class diagram, synchronized with execution. β€’ A trace table that inspects variables, arrays and references between objects. β€’ Translation of your algorithm into Python and Rust, so you can see the same idea written in an industrial language. β€’ A knowledge base of fifteen modules across three levels, with activities and checkable exercises. β€’ Exercise checking against visible and hidden cases: it tells you what is missing, without punitive scoring. β€’ A personal library of documents, available offline and synchronized across your devices. WHO IT IS FOR For anyone starting to program who needs to see what their algorithm does, and for anyone teaching it who wants to show them. Available in Spanish and English.
