a design decision.
Try a different color. Soften the corners. Switch to a compact layout. Watch one component respond in real time.

A little order

Insertion sort builds a sorted section one value at a time. Watch each comparison, swap, and decision happen.

See the C++ idea
for (int i = 1; i < n; ++i) {
int j = i;
while (j > 0 && a[j - 1] > a[j]) {
swap(a[j - 1], a[j]);
--j;
