Program to perform sorting using selection sort in 8085 Microprocessor


Here we will see one microprocessor program using 8085. In this program we will see how to sort a sequence of numbers using selection sort.

Problem Statement 

Write an 8085 Assembly language program to sort a given sequence using selection sort in ascending order. The numbers are stored at 8001H onwards. 8000H is holding the block size.

Discussion 

In the selection sorting technique, we will choose the minimum or the maximum term from a set of numbers. In this case we are considering the sorting in ascending order, so we are choosing the minimum number. By taking the minimum number, we are swapping it with the element of currently pointed location. In each pass the minimum number of the sub block is placed at the correct position.

            This program has two subroutines. The first subroutine will check the minimum number in a set of numbers, and the second subroutine will be used to swap the numbers.
