    Solution

    Here the rule followed is: Step I: The smallest number interchanges its position with the first number. [In case the first number is smallest then the next number just larger than it interchanges its position with the second number.] Step II: The largest number interchanges its position with the last number. [In case the largest number is first from right end, the second largest number interchanges its position with the second number from right and so on.] These steps are repeated alternately till the numbers get arranged in ascending order and that will be the last step for the particular input. Input: 50 26 82 28 43 94 68 63   Step I: 26 50 82 28 43 94 68 63
