To compile use:
./mvnw clean verifyTo run use:
./runAlternatively, you can double click on "run" or "run.bat" on Windows.
You can always download the most up-to-date pre-built JAR from GitHub Actions (link via nightly.link).

- Bug fix for Patiencesort on reversed arrays
- Quicksorts exhibiting worst-case behavior during "Run All Sorts" run much faster
- Same tweak as above to Weave Merge Sort
- Error messages with detailed information will now appear within the program!
- Sound effects are now consistent on all platforms

- New webhook to my Discord server! Check it out here: https://discord.com/invite/2xGkKC2
- Quick bug fix to the "Linked Dots" visual; The first line is no longer horizontal.
- Sound effects are much more pleasant at slower speeds
- Revamped "Run All Sorts" (It is now easier to create your own sequence of sorts!)
- More accurate delay algorithm
- Improved random shuffle algorithm (now with 0% bias!)
- Cleaner statistics
- Sort an array up to 16,384 (2^14) numbers!
- The "green sweep" animation also verifies an array is properly sorted after watching a sort. If a sort fails, a warning message pops up, highlighting where the first out-of-order item is.
- Minor tweak to the sort time method. It should be a slight bit more accurate now.
- Slowsort and Sillysort's comparisons are now shown.
- Gravity Sort has a more detailed visual now
- Pancake Sorting is fixed

- Bug fixes and minor tweaks
- Minor fixes to "Skip Sort" button
- Weird static line bug with linked dots squashed
- Other miscellaneous fixes and changes here and there
- Both Odd-Even Mergesorts now display comparisons

- NEW SORTS:
- Significantly refactored code, more object-oriented
- Optimized visuals -- the program runs smoother than ever!
- Plug-and-play functionality -- using classgraph, you can now easily add your own sorting algorithms to the program! Documentation on that will be available in the future.
- Sort delay system redesigned -- you can now change the speed of the program in the middle of a delayed compare or swap
- Speed dialogue is now disabled while other windows are open
- WikiSort no longer gets stuck on sorting its internal buffer
- Tweaks to TimSort, mostly reimplementing its binary insertion sort
- Binary Insertion Sort is now stable
- The write/swap counts for inputs already sorted are fixed
- The main/auxillary array write counts for Bottom-up Merge are fixed
- Shuffling the array now clears the statistics
- The highest pitches of the program's sound effects are fixed

- GrailSort's highlights slightly tweaked
KNOWN BUGS:
- Certain sorts (comb sort, radix sorts) cause the program to forget the current speed
- Certain sorts do not work with the "Skip Sort" button
- Missing soundfont
- SkaSort and HolyGrailSort produce errors -- this is normal, they aren't finished yet
- No circular pointer -- will be fixed soon
