You have found the only standard sorting program (qsort).  The prototype
for qsort in <stdlib.h>.  All of the standard library functions have
prototypes in standard headers, which are (the ones you are most likely
to need are marked with a !).  Later you will be using them all.

<assert.h>      <locale.h>      <stddef.h>
<ctype.h>!      <math.h>!       <stdio.h>!
<errno.h>       <setjmp.h>      <stdlib.h>!
<float.h>       <signal.h>      <string.h>!
<limits.h>      <stdarg.h>      <time.h>!
<iso646.h>      <wctype.h>      <wchar.h>
