Question

Write a function that takes an array and its size as inputs, and then sorts the elements of the array in ascending order. For example, if the array contains the values (12, -3, 5, 4, 7), then the array sorted in ascending order will be (-3, 4, 5, 7, 12). In order to sort the array, you must use the following algorithm: (0) Initialize i = 0; Starting at array index i, find the smallest value in the array at or after index i (i.e., any index greater than or equal to i within the proper array bounds). Swap the smallest value found in the array with the value at index i; Increment i by one; If i is less than the array size, then repeat the process starting at step (1). You must use the following function prototype: void sort(int array[], int size);

Explanation / Answer

libsort.h:

#include <stdio.h>
void sort(int array[],int size);

libsort.c

void sort(int array[],int size)
{
   int i,temp,min,j;
   for(i=0;i<size;i++)
   {
       min = i;
       for(j=i+1;j<size;j++)
       {
           if(array[j]<array[min])
           {
               min=j;
           }
       }
       temp = array[i];
       array[i] = array[min];
       array[min] = temp;
   }
}
