Hello,
I have done the Radix with queue
here you are an example
But the queue is my own Queue

retrieve: return the first element
serve : delete the first element;
dequeue: insertlast

#include <iostream>
using std::cin;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include "queue.h"
#define MAX 11
void CopyToLast(Queue<int> []);
int main()
{
	Queue<int> q[MAX];
	srand(time(0));
	int res,i,j,digit = 4,passHelper=10,temp,pos;
	cout << "Before Sorting : \n";
	for(i=0;i<100;i++) {
		res = rand() % 10000;
		cout << res << "|";		
		q[MAX-1].append(res);
		
	}
		
	for(i=0;i<digit;i++) {
		
		while(!q[MAX-1].empty()) {
			q[MAX-1].retrieve(temp);
			q[MAX-1].serve();
			pos=temp;
			for(j=0;j<i;j++)
				pos/=10;
			pos %= 10;
			q[pos].append(temp);
		}
		
		
		passHelper *= 10;
		CopyToLast(q);
	}
	
	cout << "\nAfter sorting :\n";
	while(!q[MAX-1].empty()) {
		q[MAX-1].retrieve(temp);
		cout << temp << "|";
		q[MAX-1].serve();
	}
	
	return 0;
}
void CopyToLast(Queue<int> g[])
{
	int i,temp;
	for(i=0;i<MAX-1;i++) {
		while(!g[i].empty()) {
			g[i].retrieve(temp);
			g[MAX-1].append(temp);
			g[i].serve();
		}
	}

}

If you want here you are my own queue class

#ifndef QUEUE_H
#define QUEUE_H
enum Error_code {success,overflow,underflow};
template <typename Queue_entry>
class Queue {
public:
	Queue();
	bool empty()const;
	Error_code append(const Queue_entry &);
	Error_code serve();
	Error_code retrieve(Queue_entry &)const;
	~Queue();
	Queue(const Queue &);
	Queue &operator=(const Queue &);
protected:
	struct Node { 
		Queue_entry data;
		Node *next; 
	};
	Node *front,*rear;
};
template<typename Queue_entry>
Queue<Queue_entry>::Queue() {
	rear = front = NULL;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
Queue<Queue_entry>::Queue(const Queue &x) {
	rear = front = NULL;
	Node *orginalFront = x.front,*orignalRear = x.rear,*q,*p = NULL;
	if (orginalFront != NULL) {
	front = new Node;
	p = NULL;
	front->data = orginalFront->data;
	front->next = NULL;
	p = front;
	
	while (orginalFront != NULL) {
	
		q= new Node;
		q->data = orginalFront->data;
		q->next = NULL;
		p->next = q;
		
		
		orginalFront = orginalFront->next;
		
	}
	
	rear = q;
	}
}

template<typename Queue_entry>
Error_code Queue<Queue_entry>::append(const Queue_entry &x) {
	Node *p = new Node;
	p->data = x;
	p->next = NULL;
	if (rear != NULL ) rear->next = p;
	
	rear = p;
	if (front == NULL) front = rear;
	return success;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
Error_code Queue<Queue_entry>::retrieve(Queue_entry &item) const{
	if (!empty() ) {
		item = front->data;
		return success;
	}
	return underflow;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
Error_code Queue<Queue_entry>::serve() {
	if (!empty() ) {
		Node *q = front;
		front = front->next;
		if (front == NULL) rear = NULL;
		delete q;
		return success;
	}
	return underflow;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
bool Queue<Queue_entry>::empty() const {
	if (front == NULL) return true;
	return false;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
Queue<Queue_entry> &Queue<Queue_entry>::operator =(const Queue<Queue_entry> &x)
{
	if (this != &x) {
		Node *p = front;
		while (front != NULL) {
			p = front;
			front = front->next;
			delete p;
		}
	
		rear = front = NULL;
	Node *orginalFront = x.front,*orignalRear = x.rear,*q;
	
	if (orginalFront != NULL) {
	front = new Node;
	p = NULL;
	front->data = orginalFront->data;
	front->next = NULL;
	p = front;
	
	while (orginalFront != NULL) {
	
		q= new Node;
		q->data = orginalFront->data;
		q->next = NULL;
		p->next = q;
		
		
		orginalFront = orginalFront->next;
		
	}
	
	rear = q;
	}
	}

	return *this;
}
template<typename Queue_entry>
Queue<Queue_entry>::~Queue()
{
		Node *p = front;
		while (front != NULL) {
			p = front;
			front = front->next;
			delete p;
		}
}
#endif

This program is generates 100 random integers and store them in the latest Queue then start sorting

can anyone give me a example of a radix sort

Here's an explanation to complement Abu's code example:

A radix sort works with the digits of a number, working from the least significant digit to the most. Here's a sample set of numbers:
423 586 403 171 92 536 234 243

First, sort the numbers by the least siginificant digit (ones). For this algorithm to work, your buckets have to be order-preserving.
171 92 423 403 243 234 586 536

Then, sort them by the next most significant digit (tens):
403 423 234 536 243 171 586 92

Now hundreds:
92 171 234 243 403 423 536 586

...and they're sorted. Each step doesn't have to be a bucket sort; any order-preserving sort will work.

Can anyone provide me the Radix sorting through other than the Queue.w8ng for the replyyyyyy......

You can use buckets to code radix sort.
