Sorting Characters Of A C String

Question

If i have a string is there a built in function to sort the characters or would I have to write my own   for example   string word    dabc     I would want to change it so that   string sortedWord    abcd     Maybe using char is a better option  How would I do this in C

There is a sorting algorithm in the standard library, in the header <algorithm>. It sorts inplace, so if you do the following, your original word will become sorted.

std::sort(word.begin(), word.end());

If you don't want to lose the original, make a copy first.

std::string sortedWord = word;
std::sort(sortedWord.begin(), sortedWord.end());

You have to include sort function which is in algorithm header file which is a standard template library in c     Usage  std  sort str begin    str end       include  lt iostream gt   include  lt algorithm gt      this header is required for std  sort to work int main         std  string s    dacb       std  sort s begin    s end         std  cout  lt  lt  s  lt  lt  std  endl       return 0      OUTPUT      abcd
