simple function for making something in a .txt file ascending order

[Hedgehog Ninja]

Hey I am making a program where it takes an occupation and their salary and calculating the average and the median of all the salaries from said occupation in a text file. How do I make a function to make it it order the occupation ascending order fro A-Z with their salaries ?

use the bubblesort method, or use substrings and compare all the first letters of the occupation. capital A has the largest value and small z has the lowest

Can someone give me an example of how to sort using functions.

here is a tentative function:

int Lrg_Pos(int st_pos, int l_pos)
{
  int i, n;
  i = st_pos;
  for(n = Lrg_TM + 1; n < l_pos - 1; n++)
	  if((salary[n]) > (salary[i]))
	  i = n;  
  return i;
}  	     

//st_pos is the start position where you wanna start the sorting and l_pos is the last
// then use a swap function

void swap (double &A,double &B)
{
  double Temp;
 
 A = Temp;
 B = A;
 Temp = B;
}
