In the case of each algorithm we chose such implementation version that fits best with the characteristics of the corresponding folk dance. After students have understood the key features of the algorithm the teacher should discuss with them the possibilities the algorithm can be optimized.

Merge-sort with Transylvanian-saxon (German) folk dance, and quick-sort

with Hungarian (“Küküllőmenti legényes”) folk dance will be uploaded in few

days. We are developing a software tool that didactically exploits the six

dance-performances. This software will also be available soon.

The program appears to work fine for a while, however it seems to have bugs around its end condition. At 2:25 comparisons are still happening but no longer result in exchanges. There’s some sporadic erratic behavior, strangely involving odd numbers only, around 2:47. Exceptions appears to start being thrown around all over the place beginning with 3:00. However in the end the whole thing converges and the result is ok.

Now, it will be much easier to me to remember how it works :D

@AbelBlog It's a fun way to show how it works. man! :D

[hananahmad114]

i finally understand it :) thanks @AlgoRythmics :)

Men are too egocentric, doing all for their profit like using algorithm concepts to promote their cultures; what does insertion sort has to do with couple dancing.

Great idea by the way.

@seriouslyWeird Bubble sort is where you, look at the first pair & switch if necessary. Advance one to 2 ,3 and switch if necessary. This is done until the end is reached. It then goes for a additional pass until the whole pass switches nothing. This, Insert sort, after a pair is compared it goes back a position and checks to see if it is in order. If it isn't it switches and moves back again. If it is it jumps forward to the closest untouched value.

@AlgoRythmics from what region are the costumes? I have never seen such large romanian trousers (not even in Oas)

My teacher has it in class! *-*
