To solve this program, a two-dimensional string named str is created. The string can hold a maximum of 5 strings and each string can have a maximum of 50 characters (including the null character).

In the program, we have used two library functions:

• strcmp() - to compare strings
• strcpy() - to copy strings

These functions are used to compare strings and sort them in the correct order.
