scanf("%d", &n);
// Read names
printf("Enter %d names:\n", n);
for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
scanf("%s", names[i]); // Reads a single word as name
}
// Sorting names using simple string comparison
for (i = 0; i < n - 1; i++) {
for (j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
if (strcmp(names[i], names[j]) > 0) {
strcpy(temp, names[i]);
strcpy(names[i], names[j]);
strcpy(names[j], temp);
}
}
}
// Print sorted names
