ELEC 2220 - Homework Assignment #2
Prerequisite Review
Due Friday, August 22
The first assignment was a program to manipulate numeric data. This assignment is a
program to manipulate non-numeric (ASCII) character data.
Write a short program (in any language) that will read five names from the keyboard, and
then print the names in alphabetical order.
Run your program twice, with the names entered exactly as listed below, and in the given
order. One has all of the names capitalized, and the second has a mixture of upper and
lower-case letters. Turn in a printout of your program and the two sorted lists printed by
the program for the two runs.
In addition, discuss:
(1) whether the program produced what you expected for Example 2, and
(2) how you would modify the program to handle any number of names.
