Abstract
Eliot is an interactive animation environment, which visualizes algori thms written in the C programming language, Eliot provides a library o f visual data types which are ordinary data types with a set pre-defin ed visualizations. The user selects one visualization for each data ob ject he wants to animate. Based on these selections, Eliot constructs an animation where the objects as well as their operations are animate d. Eliot can be used in algorithm design, visual debugging and learnin g programming. (C) 1998 Academic Press.
