Question

Write a C program which will prompt the user to enter some words and then sort the words in alphabetical order and display them.

Source Code

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

void accept(char str[][80], int s);
void display(char str[][80], int s);
void bsort(char str[][80], int s);

int main()
{
    char text[10][80], n;
    printf("Number of strings you want to enter : ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
    accept(text, n);
    printf("\nBefore sorting");
    display(text, n);
    bsort(text, n);
    printf("\nAfter sorting");
    display(text, n);

    return 0;
}

void accept(char str[][80], int s)
{
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i < s; i++)
    {
        printf("Enter string %d : ", i + 1);
        gets(str[i]);
    }
}

void display(char str[][80], int s)
{
    int i;
    printf("\n");
    for (i = 0; i < s; i++)
    {
        puts(str[i]);
    }
}

void bsort(char str[][80], int s)
{
    int i, j;
    char temp[80];
    for (i = 0; i < s - 1; i++)
    {
        for (j = 0; j < (s - 1-i); j++)
        {
            if (strcmp(str[j], str[j + 1]) > 0)
            {
                strcpy(temp, str[j]);
                strcpy(str[j], str[j + 1]);
                strcpy(str[j + 1], temp);
            }
        }
    }
}

Output
