Sort Strings in Alphabetical Order

I want to short string in Alphabetical Order

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h> int main(void)
{
    char string[10] [10], temp;
        int i, j, n;
 
    printf ("\n Pramot user to Enter size: ");
    scanf ("%s", &n);
 
      for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
      {
        printf ("\n Enter the  string: ");
        scanf ("%s", &string[i]);
      }
 
      for(i = 0;i < n;i++)
      {
   
        for( j = i; j < n; j++)
        {
            if(strcmp(string[i],string[j])>0)
                        {
              strcpy(temp,string[i]);
              strcpy(string[i],string[j]);
              strcpy(string[j],temp); 
            }
        }
     
      }
   
      for(i=0;i<n;i++)
           
      printf("%s ",string[i]);
 
 
      return 0;
}

What's the wrong

Try adding #include <string.h> to the top of your source code

Temp needs to be an array as well.

What type is temp[i]? Is it a pointer to char, or is it a char? What type does strcpy() want for its first argument on line 23? What type does strcpy() want as its second argument on line 25?

Why did you feel it was necessary to subscript temp?
