As I am only in a first level modula course, I can't yet describe the
specifics, but here is the simple method of performing a bubble sort,
not the best sort in the world, but effective, especially as a learning
tool...

        for (I = 0; I < NUMITEMS-1; I++)
          for (J = I+1; J < NUMITEMS; J++)
            if (item[J] 'goesbefore' item[I] 'swapthem')

This is written similar to the C construct. I++ means 'I:=I+1', or INC(I).
Let me know if this is too vauge...
