Heap Sort in C - Iterative Algorithm

"Heapsort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm to create a sorted array (or list), and is part of the selection sort family. Although somewhat slower in practice on most machines than a well-implemented quicksort, it has the advantage of a more favorable worst-case O(n log n) runtime. Heapsort is an in-place algorithm, but is not a stable sort." - Wikipedia

#include<stdio.h>

  // is determined and the index is stored in "largest".

    largest = l;
