Explanation / Answer

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

//*** Sorts an array of strings in place ***//
//
// Inputs:
// strings: the array of strings, each entry is type char *
// length: the number of entries in the array
//
// Returns: nothing, the strings are sorted in place
void stringSort(char *strings[], int length) {
  
// Write code to sort strings using any sorting algorithm
int i, j;
for(i = 0; i < length - 1; i++){
   j = i;
   while(j > 0 && strcmp(strings[j - 1], strings[j]) > 0){
       char *temp = strings[j - 1];
       strings[j - 1] = strings[j];
       strings[j] = temp;
       j--;
   }
}
}


int main() {
char *animals[] = {"zebra", "quail", "xenops",
"aardwolf", "aardvark", "dog",
"bear", "cat", "bearcat"};
  
stringSort(animals, 9);
  
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
printf("%s ", animals[i]);
}

return 0;
}
