The defaults don't produce results like the video.

I moved the Speed slider to the left, to speed it up by shortening the delay between sorts.

I dragged "Sound Sustain" way to the right, near 30, to be able to hear distinct tones. Before that, it was more staccato machine gun bursts.

        binary sort has uses far beyond coded sorts. - alcaray - 8/2/2013 6:16:04 PM
        
        Actually the term 'binary search' fits better than 'binary sort' the way I described it. - alcaray - 8/2/2013 6:40:21 PM
        
        a binary sort is just the age-old principle of divide-and-conquer - Robert - 8/2/2013 4:33:31 AM
