Hello
Can someone tell me what this sort algorithm is called.?
And if possible a little bit of information about it...
void record_search(struct CdRecords cdDB[])
{
system("CLS");
int i;
char name[20];
printf("Enter Name:");
scanf("%s", name);
for(i = 0;i<datasize;i++)
{
if((strcmp(name,cdDB[i].Artist))==0)
{
ENTER DATA TO BE DISPLAYED
}
}
printf("Press Enter To Continue");
// fflush(stdin);
getch();
}Jump to PostI dont think it is a sorting function at all. All it does is ask the user for a name, searches the database for a match, and once a match is found display the information the user wants to see. Nope, no sort.

#include <string.h> void *memset(void *s, int c, size_t n);Description
memset() sets the first n bytes in memory area s to the value of c (converted to an
unsigned char). It returns s.

Linear Search
Hey thanx for that one
also check this line out:
memset(cdDB,0,datasize*sizeof(struct CdRecords));what does memset exactly do as i have neva encountered it before and want to know how it actually works.
