Could be worth looking at graph theory and graph colouring algorithms. Also maybe a Turing machine with colours instead of symbols, you could hand execute the state machine and end up with coloured patterns or even a Lo-res picture.

Re: Show HN: A coloring book of data structures and algorithms
#102I am just starting My Brilliant Career in Programming by taking an intro Python course. Data structures and alogrithms are somewhere in my close future. Your sample page on Selection Sort was simple and immediately understandable. More please!

#103I think seeing how you colored it would make a great poster or book -- i.e. as someone unfamiliar with algorithms I would buy the colored in book or set of posters to help me understand them.

#104Looks great. I would buy it.

Thanks a lot! Can I ask, would you buy it for educational purposes or just to have for fun? Thanks!

Both. I'm curious to see what it's like. I organize a programming group in Berkeley (codeselfstudy.com) and would show it to them to see if people might be interested in working on algorithms problems during the meetings. I think that unusual format might make a good conversation starter in the group.

Awesome, that sounds like the perfect place to share it. Would you be willing to share the beta pages with your group and see if they have any input/feedback? I'll be sending out more pages to the mailing list soon too so they can have more than just Selection Sort to try out. Let me know (levi -at- coderscoloringbook.com) Cheers!
