+// C implementation of Sleep Sort 
+#include <stdio.h> 
+#include <windows.h> 
+#include <process.h> 
+
+// This is the instruction set of a thread 
+// So in these threads, we "sleep" for a particular 
+// amount of time and then when it wakes up 
+// the number is printed out 
+void routine(void *a) 
+{ 
+	int n = *(int *) a; // typecasting from void to int 
+
+	// Sleeping time is proportional to the number 
+	// More precisely this thread sleep for 'n' milliseconds 
+	Sleep(n); 
+
+	// After the sleep, print the number 
+	printf("%d ", n); 
+} 
+
+/* A function that performs sleep sort 
+_beginthread() is a C run-time library call that creates a new 
+'thread' for all the integers in the array and returns that 
+thread. 
+
+Each of the 'thread' sleeps for a time proportional to that 
+integer and print it after waking. 
+
+We pass three parameters to _beginthread :- 
+1) start_address --> start address of the routine/function 
+					which creates a new thread 
+2) stack_size --> Stack Size of the new thread (which is 0) 
+3) arglist --> Address of the argument to be passed 
+
+The return value of _beginthread() function is a handle to the 
+thread which is created. So we must accept is using the datatype- 
+'HANDLE' which is included in windows.h header 
+'HANDLE' datatype is used to represent an event/thread/process etc 
+So 'HANDLE' datatype is used to define a thread 
+We store the threads in an array - threads[] which is declared 
+using 'HANDLE' datatype. 
+
+WaitForMultipleObjects() is a function that processes the threads 
+and has four arguments- 
+1) no_of_threads --> Number of threads to be processed 
+2) array_of_threads --> This is the array of threads which should be 
+						processed. This array must be of the type 
+						'HANDLE' 
+3) TRUE or FALSE --> We pass TRUE if we want all the threads in the 
+					array to be processed 
+4) time_limit --> The threads will be processed until this time limit 
+				is crossed. So if we pass a 0 then no threads will 
+				be processed, otherwise if we pass an INFINITE, then 
+				the program will stop only when all the threads 
+				are processed. We can put a cap on the execution 
+				time of the program by passing the desired time 
+				limit */
