Abstract
Visualization is a useful aid for understanding the working of algorithms. Therefore many interactive algorithm animation tools have been developed. However, students may misinterpret the visualization and therefore the correctness of their interpretation should be confirmed by tests supplemented with feedback.In this paper, a learning environment for data structures and algorithms is presented. The combination of algorithm animation and simulation with automatic assessment provides a way to give meaningful feedback to the students. Our experience shows that this combination is of great value for the students studying algorithms.
