  • Fibonacci Sequence
  • Visualize Fib
  • Python Tutor is a good resource to use to visualize the memory model. Choose "render all objects", "use text labels for references", and Python 3.3 to look a version of the memory model we are accustomed with.

  • Binary Search Trees
  • A visualization of BST can be found here. The only problem with this is that if two nodes are equal it picks the left child instead of the right. But otherwise I think it does a pretty good job.
  • Heaps
  • A visualization of min heap can be found here.
