Description

Shows heap, has speed control. Also has an "I'll Try" mode where viewers are asked to select what bars will be swapped. There is an explanation page to go along with the exercise to guide the user.

Evaluation

The "I'll Try" mode makes the user demonstrate understanding. It might help if there were pseudocode, but otherwise this is excellent teaching aid.
