Q-1) Input : any how 49 24 far wide 34 69. Which of the following steps will be the last but one?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
(e)
In the first step, the word that comes first in the reverse alphabetical order comes to the first place and the rest of the line shift rightward. In the next step, the largest number occupies the next place and the rest of the line shifts rightward. This goes on alternately till the words get arranged in the reverse alphabetical order and the numbers in a descending order.
Input : any how 49 24 far wide 34 69
Step I : wide any how 49 24 far 34 69
