$1\mathrm{.}7$ Lab Exercise $1$a: Write an algorithm

Before you write any code $($in C$++),$ you need to write the algorithm in English. The algorithm is the description of the problem and desired solution. It must include a list or description of the input $($if there is any, such as something the user types$),$ output $($usually what will be printed onscreen, though it might be also written to a file$),$ and the steps to create the output.

For this exercise, add comments to the top of the program below, describing an algorithm for sorting a random stack of paper money, to increasing in value top to bottom. Each line of comment must begin with $//.$ Ignore the code in the program below, but don't delete it$.$ Be sure your comment algorithm includes the following lines, which should begin with the first word in each line below, and replace the underscore with your description of each item for this problem:

$//$ input:

$/$ output:

$//$ steps: $($ The first is given for you below: $)$

$//1.$ pick up a bill and determine its value

$//$

$2.$

$//3.$
