Sorting Program in Assembly Language

Overview

This sorting program was developed as a project for the Computer Organization and Assembly Language course at FAST NUCES, Karachi. It allows sorting of strings, characters, and integers using different algorithms tailored to each data type.

Features

• Sorting Types Supported:

  • Integer Sort (Bubble Sort)
  • Character Sort (Bubble Sort)
  • String and Sentence Sort

• Libraries Used:

  • Irvine Library for assembly language programming in Visual Studio 2019.

How to Use

1. Installation:

   • Clone the repository to your local machine.

2. Setup:

   • Ensure Visual Studio 2019 is installed with Irvine Library configured.

3. Execution:

   • Open the project in Visual Studio.
   • Build and run the project.

4. Usage:

   • Follow the on-screen prompts to select the type of sorting.
   • Enter the number of inputs and the elements to be sorted.

5. Output:

   • The program will display the sorted results based on your input.

Methodology

The program uses bubble sort algorithms for sorting integers and characters, and a custom method for sorting strings and sentences based on spaces and ASCII values. Each sorting type has a dedicated function to ensure accuracy and efficiency.

Future Improvements

• Allow users to choose different sorting algorithms.
• Enhance user interface with more interactive features.
• Expand sorting capabilities to handle additional data types or complex scenarios.
