Passing any array type to a function in C -

i trying write function makes ordenations on numeric array given it. problem c needs know data type iterate through array properly, because of "pointer nature". there way can pass array without knowing type? maybe using void type?

void ordenation (void *array, ...) {} 

here's how understand question, please reply below if that's not it. trying create function in c can accept arrays of multiple numeric types (float, int, etc.).

this called function overloading. possible in c11 via _generic operator. see function overloading in c

another option create functions different name, different parameter list. so:

    void ordenation_i(int *array);     void ordenation_f(float *array); 

another way using void* type. mean can pass pointer , may not looking for. have cast void* pointer else, float. if operation fails, may have problems.

    void ordenation(void *array){       float* array_casted = (float*) array;        // stuff     } 

the problem in code array can used float array.

finally, use c++ compiler. should compile c code , function overloading default.

    void ordenation(int array[]){       //do stuff     }      void ordenation(float array[]){       //do stuff     }
