How do you sort a one-dimensional array with 10 integers into ascending and descending order?

Answer 1

Sorting can be done by taking the first integer value and comparing it by the rest of the elements in the array . The large or small number can be pushed swapped with its large or small (vice versa) as per preference and the array will be sorted out .

1. void ascending() {
2. int x = 0;
3. int temp = 0;
4. float fUserArray[10] = {0};
5. for(x=0; x<10; x++) {
6. printf("\nPlease enter a number: ");
7. scanf("%f", &fUserArray[x]);
8. }//end for loop
9. for(x=0;x<10; x++) {
10. if(fUserArray[x] > fUserArray[x+1]) {
11. temp = fUserArray[x];
12. fUserArray[x] = fUserArray[x+1];
13. fUserArray[x+1] = temp;
14. }//end if
15. }//end for loop
16. printf("\nYour numbers in ascending order are:");
17. for(x=0;x<10;x++){
18. printf("\n%.2f", fUserArray[x]); }//end for
19. }//End ascending function
20. /**********************************/
21. /*Function definition--descending */
22. void descending() {
23. int x = 0;
24. int temp = 0;
25. float fUserArray[10] = {0};
26. for(x=0;x<10;x++) {
27. printf("\nPlease enter a number: ");
28. scanf("%f", &fUserArray[x]);
29. }//end for loop
30. for(x=0;x<10;x++) {
31. if(fUserArray[x] < fUserArray[x+1]){
32. temp = fUserArray[x];
33. fUserArray[x] = fUserArray[x+1];
34. fUserArray[x+1] = temp;
35. }//end if
36. }//End for loop
37. printf("\nYour numbers in descending order are:");
38. for(x=0;x<10;x++) {
39. printf("\n%.2f", fUserArray[x]);
40. }//end for loop
41. }//end descending function
