C Program to Sort N Numbers in Ascending Order using Bubble Sort

This C Program sorts the numbers in ascending order using bubble sort. Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly stepping through the list to be sorted, comparing each pair of adjacent items and swapping them if they are in the wrong order. Here we need to sort a number in ascending order.

Here is source code of the C program to sort the numbers in ascending order using bubble sort. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.
