[FEAT]: The visualizer needs more sorting algorithms

[alesbe]

Describe your problem:

Right now there is only 3 sorting algorithms, would be so cool to add more!

Steps to reproduce:

None

Possible fix (optional):

Add new sorting algorithms (how to add new algorithms)

Hello,

Hope this is not too out of place. This looks like something I can contribute to. I've been looking for a first open source project. I'm familiar with SFML and C++. I'd like to take a crack at adding quicksort. (If you'd like.) c:

[alesbe]

Sure! I never had contributors to any project so it's a new experience for me too, I did this small wiki page with some info, let me know if you have any issue with the code, Im going to add some more info to the wiki page :)

[ariajanke]

Think I may add merge sort later here. Give using the new branches a go. c:

[alesbe]

Awesome! Also, the algorithm functions will change a little bit (see #15), you can wait for the changes to be implemented because it's a relatively big change, or just make sure to pull the changes before doing the PR to prevent merge conflicts! :)

Edit: The changes has been implemented! #24

Any sorting algorithms that haven't been added yet that I could contribute to?

[alesbe]

@Blargian sure, thanks for your interest!

Here is a guide on how to add a new sorting algorithm.

These are the algorithms currently implemented:

• Bubble sort
• Selection sort
• Insertion sort
• Quick sort
• Cocktail shaker sort
• Bogo sort

Maybe the code needs a bit of refactoring in some areas, if you need more info just let me know!
