A screenshot from my reservoir sampling post. In it you can see a visual of cards being shuffled at the top, and underneath that is a bar chart tracking which cards appear early in the shuffle.

A screenshot from my Big O post. In it can be seen a bubble sort algorithm written in JavaScript. Above the code is a visual of a 5-element array being bubble sorted.

A screenshot from my prompt caching post. In it can be seen a visual of 8 clusters of coloured points shown in a 3-dimensional graph.
