about ShowSort

This is a Google Apps Engine/Java app I wrote, primarily to become familiar with how Google Apps Engine works, as well as to learn Google Web Toolkit (GWT), scripting in Java with Jython using JSR-223. tag, and tying them all together. It is based on an old programming project I did in high school, implementing a graphical representation of sorting an array of integers. I've expanded it some, added in a whole slew of new sorting algorithms to the process, and refining the concept a lit. For curiosity's sake, it includes the actual source code (visible in the app) for each sorting algorithm, which is written in Python. All and all, I had enjoyed figuring out how to write the app and getting it working like it is now... in the future, I might expand upon the process significantly... There's still a number of algorithms I'd like to add to the app to make it more complete, and maybe some different ways to represent the sorting algorithm's work.
