How do you sort an array of numbers?
Use a sorting algorithm. There are a bewildering number of sorting algorithms, both stable and unstable. To sort numbers, an unstable sort suffices. The algorithm you use will depend on how many numbers need to be sorted (a small or a large set), however a hybrid algorithm (a combination of two or more algorithms) can cater for both. Introsort (unstable) and timsort (stable) are the two most common hybrid sorting algorithms.
In a sorting algorithm the sort order can be changed by changing the operator?
In a sorting algorithm the sort order can be changed by changing the comparison operator.
What is a stock sorting algorithm?
Stock sorting algorithm is a algorithm which is used to sort any kind of stock i.e. any data type containing the primitive values like array ,link list ,stack etc.
Is an algorithm that puts elements of a list in a certain order?
This is called sorting.
What is sub-algorithm?
It is an algorithm used by another algorithm as part of the second algorithm's operation.As an example, an algorithm for finding the median value in a list of numbers might include sorting the numbers as a sub-algorithm: There are plenty of algorithms for sorting, and the specifics of the sorting does not matter to the "median value" algorithm, only that the numbers are sorted when the sub-algorithm is done.For what an algorithm is, see related link.

When given a list of numbers what are the steps to put them greatest to least?
There are several different algorithms for sorting numbers by size. ?The steps to take will depend on which algorithm you wish to use.There are several different algorithms for sorting numbers by size. ?The steps to take will depend on which algorithm you wish to use.There are several different algorithms for sorting numbers by size. ?The steps to take will depend on which algorithm you wish to use.There are several different algorithms for sorting numbers by size. ?The steps to take will depend on which algorithm you wish to use.

Sorting an array of numbers in java?
here you will a good example on java sorting algorithm application http://javacodespot.blogspot.com/2010/08/java-sorting-animations.html http://javacodespot.blogspot.com/
Who introduce selection sorting algorithm?
in selection sorting at first we take first element of the list and start comparing with all the successive element of that list
What is the code for arranging numbers in c language?
That depends on the sorting algorithm you'd like to use. Usually, Quick-sort is good enough for your purposes, but if your application needs to be fast, you might want to read some documents about sorting.
