Sorts the given array pointed to by ptr
in ascending order. The array contains count
elements of size size
. Function pointed to by comp
is used for object comparison.
Contents |
Parameters
ptr | - | pointer to the array to sort |
count | - | number of element in the array |
size | - | size of each element in the array in bytes |
comp | - | comparison function which returns a negative integer value if the first argument is less than the second, a positive integer value if the first argument is greater than the second and zero if the arguments are equivalent. The signature of the comparison function should be equivalent to the following: int cmp(const void *a, const void *b); The function must not modify the objects passed to it and must return consistent results when called for the same objects, regardless of their positions in the array. |
