Does it have any practical uses or anything?
In: Mathematics
The same sorting algorithms can be used to sort any type of data you want. Sorting pixels isn’t particularly useful, it’s just a pretty way to visualize how a given sorting algorithm works.
Just to look cool. Unlike other forms of data, a single pixel (or cluster) doesn’t represent anything other that it’s own color. If you sort pixels you get some interesting patterns or effects but there really is no practical use to it.
