But why? It's really inefficient, just use quick sort, it's efficient and easy to program.

Anyways, here is selection sort: /* a is the array to sort, n its length */ for(int i = 0; i < n - 1; i++){ int m = i; for(int t = i + 1; t < n; t++){ if(a[t] > a[m]){ m = t; } } swap(a + i, a + m); /* swaps a[i] and a[m], you don't have to use a function for this */ } Do you know how it works or do you want a quick explanation?
