• Sorting Algorithms Visualization: Explore sorting algorithms like Bubble Sort and Insertion Sort with interactive visualizations.
• Real-Time Data Updates: View step-by-step changes in the simulation as it progresses.
• User-Friendly Interface: Clean and simple controls for interaction and simulation management.
• Open-Source: Free and open to contributions, with the goal of providing educational tools for students, educators, and developers.

Simulations

1. Projectile Motion

   • Visualize the trajectory of a projectile based on its initial velocity, angle, and gravitational force.
   • Parameters: Initial velocity, launch angle, gravity.

   

2. Pendulum Motion

   • Simulate the motion of a pendulum under the influence of gravity.
   • Parameters: Length of the pendulum, gravitational force.

3. Gravitational Force

   • Visualize the gravitational force between two masses (e.g., Earth and the Moon) based on their mass and distance apart.
   • Parameters: Mass of both objects, distance between them, gravitational constant.

4. 3D Graphing

   • Plot 3D mathematical functions.
   • Parameters: Mathematical function (e.g., x^2 + y^2), x and y ranges, resolution.

   

5. Sorting Algorithms

   • Visualize sorting algorithms such as Bubble Sort and Insertion Sort, with real-time updates on array states.
   • Parameters: Array values (for sorting).
