Sorting in Multidimensional Arrays
I have a program in which there is a two-dimensional array. Let's say it is array[10][2].
In array[0][0] to array[9][0], I store the Names of different students.Then in array[0][1] to array[9][1] I store the marks of respective students.
Now I want to arrange the whole array as an Excel Table sort of thing, w.r.t. the numbers of students... The problem is, even if I can apply bubble sorting on the marks column, the students column doesn't change with respect to the marks.
For Example:
will be arranged like
whereas I want it arranged like this:
Is there any solution?

will be arranged like
Student - - - - - Marks Marc - - - - - - - -91 Bia - - - - - - - - -90 Amanda - - - - - 86 Will - - - - - - - - 80 Vic - - - - - - - - -67 |

for each switch performed in marks column do one in students column
or
create a struct that holds name and mark and sort one-dimensional array.
