web-worker

• Implemented insertion sort, which sorts a 100K array of random numbers.
• The sorting happens in the web worker
• Created a UI which triggers the computation by pressing a button.
• When the button is pressed, an array of 100K random numbers are created and sorting is started in the Web Worker.
• While sorting continues, the UI thread sends an extra random number to the Web Worker every x ms, where x can be specified in the UI beforehand.
• When the Web Worker receives a new number, it stops sorting, adds the number to the array, and sends an acknowledgement back. After that, it continues sorting.
• When the sorting is finished, the UI visualizes:
  • How much time the sorting took.
  • How much time adding every extra random number took.
  • The time between the UI thread sending the number and getting the acknowledgement back is measured and rendered.
