recursive selection sort..

You don't need recSelSort() and your swap() is misplaced. swap() belongs inside recFindMin() and selSort() should be used to move the min element forward but instead you're decrementing it.

Code:

---

selSort(array,i-1,length); /* i will never reach length which is the top level condition */

---

ok ill try to implement it

IMO the only functions you need to get the entire job done using only recursion are listed below with minor changes as in

Code:

---

void selSort(int array[], int i ,int length);
void swap(int num[],int i,int j);
int recFindMin(int array[], int index, int length);

---

selSort() is the top level function; its index i increments while length remains the same.
In recFindMin() index i remains the same while length decrements.

In case you are interested here's a pretty good guide to recursion http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/...&id=1073086407
Any luck nailing down the current recursion sort?

i solved it :)

just curious to see what the final solution looks like?
