122 11 MULTIDIMENSIONAL EXPANSION OF THE ALGORYTHMICS... of the tree watching others to dance fight for the top position. Best explanation I could imagine”; “I like how the heaps are represented as a family”; “The most profound visual explanation of linear sorting that I have ever seen! The creativityi i i ”; “(Quick sort) I can feel their bliss when each got both of the hats, found his place and can rest peacefully. (15 years of CS here)”. Comments that emphasize the uniqueness and innovativeness of the visualizations are also common. For example: “I think I just found a new continent”; “Knuth needs to update Volume 3 with this”; “Art + Music + Logic + Sorting = This Awesome Video. Thank you very much”; “They really put the ‘rhythm’ in ‘algorithm’”; “They are Gems. Never imagined someone could come up with such creativity”; etc. Some users draw attention to Hungarians in the comments: “That is why John von Neumann was born in Hungary”; “This is why Hungary has the highest number of no[b]el prize winners per capita”; “Brings a whole new meaning to “Hungarian notation’”; “I believe that this should now be named as the ‘Hungarian Sort’”; “I am a software developer listening Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 and YouTube recommends me this. LOL!”; “Thank you to the YouTube algorithm for deciding to show me this video! I studied mathematics for a month in Budapest in 1998. This is beyond words so fantastic”; “This and kiirtés kalacs are the only reasons why God invented Hungarians”. Evidently, not all comments are positive. Most of these blame the videos for being too long. For example: “(Quick sort) Wow, even slower than bubble sort, Hungarian folk dancers just aren’t a good architecture for running sorting algorithms”; “No multi-threading? Come on, optimize your dancers already!”; etc. The selection below is intended to help readers perceive more directly the taste and the aroma of appreciating comments: — “Most beautiful thing I have ever seen in programming teachings”; “Terrific Love the Overall Concept”; “This is so satisfyingly systematic”; “Good idea for effective learning”; “Well demonstrated! Unconventionally, but well”; “Creativity level: infinite”; “Excellent! Great job, very good idea for illustrating an abstract thing”; “Now that’s what I call interpretive dance!”; “This is the way we should learn about serious things in Computer Science. Awesome videos”; “So didactic” — “30 years working in IT, this is clearly the highlight; This is no joke the best learning tool for these algorithms I’ve ever seen”; “Was 5 minutes ago watching sorting algorithm videos wondering what was happening? I now understand”; “Forget about theoretical explanations... this is the best way to understand sorting algorithms”; “Ok, thank you. I had a hard time trying to understand shell sort, here I understood literally after 30 seconds”; “Never thought that this algorithm is understandable”; “Amazing! Makes it so easy to understand the whole process and, of course, is a funny way to get into another countries’ folk dance. Congrats for the awesome work!”
