Due to the advancement of Internet, E-learning is becoming an essential part of academic education. E-learning helps students to understand a topic in their own pace at their own time. This self-learning process may become tedious because of too much written text. Visualization can be a powerful tool to overcome this hindrance. In this paper, we have implemented a new customizable algorithm visualization tool which will help students to understand any algorithm while keeping them motivated and interested in the learning process. Using this tool, students and academicians can easily simulate various algorithms to solve a problem and also will be able to compare different algorithms on their own. Before explaining the implementation details of our new visualization tool, we present a survey on various visualization tool found in the literature from 2001 to present. After that we describe our new Visualization tool and then outline the advantages of using our tool compared to the state-of-the-art design.
