seealgo

A Python library to visualize a data structure as it changes throughout a function

Overview

When writing algorithms, I often find that visualizing the data structures are necessary, but it can be difficult and time-consuming to do so. The goal of the seealgo library is to allow users to visualize a given data structure as it changes in a given function.

Installation

This library requires you to have graphviz installed on your system using the instructions appropriate for your system, or by using the following command if you are on a macOS device:

brew install graphviz

Then, install seealgo using the following command:

pip install seealgo

Using seealgo

from seealgo import List

visual_list = List()
test_list = [1, 2, 3, 4]

def append_to_list(input_list):
  input_list.append(5)
  return input_list

visual_list.see(append_to_list, test_list)
