In this tutorial we are going to learn writing C program to sort the characters of string in descending order. Here we will follow the insertion sort algorithm to sort the characters.
You can check out c program to sort character of string in ascending order
Program in C to sort the character of String in descending order
#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main () { char str[100]; char temp; int i, j,len; printf("C Program to sort character in descending order\n"); printf("Please enter the string : "); scanf("%[^\n]",str); len = strlen(str); for (i = 0; i < len-1; i++) { for (j = i+1; j < len; j++) { if (str[i]< str[j]) { temp = str[j]; str[j] = str[i]; str[i] = temp; } } } printf("After sorting character in descending order : %s", str); return 0; }
