Program Plan Intro
Sorting:
When contents of the array being arranged in the particular order is called as sorting. The order of arranging the contents can be ascending or descending order.
Bubble sort:
- Bubble sort is used to sort the elements present in the array either in the ascending or in the descending order by performing comparison in each passes.
- The comparison is made one after another till the end of the list.
- When the array elements are needed to be sorted in the ascending order the smaller elements are placed at the front of the list.
- When the array elements are needed to be sorted in the descending order the larger elements are placed at the front of the list.

- What can lead to an off-by-one error in array usage?arrow_forwardModify and implement the Sort_Arr algorithm of one-dimensional array using C++ language. Your algorithm should sort the elements in DESCENDING order. The program should also ask for the number of elements to be sorted and the elements of the array should be supplied externally.arrow_forwardIN C PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE AND COMMENT EVERY LINE PLEASE SO I CAN UNDERSTAND EVERY STEP , The selection sort is one of several techniques for sorting an array. A selection sort compares every element of an array with all the other elements of the array and exchanges their values if they are out of order. After the first pass of a selection sort, the first array element is in the correct position; after the second pass the first two elements of the array are in the correct position, and so on. Thus, after each pass of a selection sort, the unsorted portion of the array contains one less element. Write and test a function that implements this sorting method.arrow_forward
