C Program to implement address calculation sort.

Write a C Program to implement address calculation sort.
Address calculation sort is the sorting method which sorts the given array by using insertion method.
In this algorithm, a hash function is used and applied to the each key. Result of hash function is placed in the linked lists. The hash function must be a order preserving function which places the elements in linked lists are called as sub files. An item is placed into a sub-file in correct sequence by using any sorting method. After all the elements are placed into subfiles, the list is concatenated to produce the sorted list.
 Address calculation sort is used to efficiently store non-contiguous keys (account numbers, part numbers, etc.) that may have wide gaps in their alphabetic and numeric sequences.
