Algorithm Viewer: Run / Step for Flowcharts

Makes flowcharts created with tiny_algorithm interactive for readers, in pages, course summaries, forums and quiz text.

Features

• Run / Step / Reset with the current block highlighted and a speed slider.
• Console with input, variable watch and generated code (Python, C, C++, Java, C#, JavaScript, Pascal) beside the diagram.
• Zoom buttons and Ctrl + mouse wheel.
• Runs in the reader's browser: nothing is sent to the server.
• Opt-in per diagram: only diagrams inserted with the Interactive option are replaced.
• Edit and test: when the teacher allows it, students edit their own copy and run the teacher's tests.

What's new in 1.2.0

• Forums and assignments: interactive diagrams now work in forum posts, assignment text and other content that Moodle cleans (diagrams inserted with tiny_algorithm 1.2.0).
• A diagram is built only when it comes near the screen, so a page with many diagrams opens quickly.

Requirements

• Moodle 4.5 LTS to 5.3 (PHP as required by your Moodle version).
• The tiny_algorithm plugin, version 1.2.0 or newer. After installing, switch the filter On in Site administration, Plugins, Filters, Manage filters.

Privacy

The program runs in the reader's browser and nothing is sent anywhere. Two display preferences (code and variable panels) and the student's own copy of an editable diagram are kept in the browser's local storage. The plugin implements the Moodle Privacy API (no personal data stored).
