Sort array using a function

Method

The values are read into an array in main(). The array name is passed to sortAsc(), which sorts it in place with bubble sort: adjacent elements are compared and swapped if the left one is bigger, and after each pass the largest of the remaining elements moves to the end. Because arrays are passed by address, the sorted array is directly available in main(), which displays it.

#include <stdio.h>

void sortAsc(int a[], int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; i++)
        for (int j = 0; j < n - 1 - i; j++)
            if (a[j] > a[j + 1]) {
                int t = a[j];
                a[j] = a[j + 1];
                a[j + 1] = t;
            }
}

int main(void)
{
    int a[100], n;
    printf("How many values? ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
    printf("Enter the values: ");
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        scanf("%d", &a[i]);
    sortAsc(a, n);                 /* array is changed in place */
    printf("Sorted list: ");
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        printf("%d ", a[i]);
    printf("\n");
    return 0;
}
