Sort the String Python

PROGRAM TO PRINT THE CHARACTERS OF A STRING IN SORTED ORDER

MAX_CHAR = 26

  

# function to print string in sorted order

def sortString(str):

      

    # Hash array to keep count of characters.

    # Initially count of all charters is 

    # initialized to zero.

    charCount = [0 for i in range(MAX_CHAR)]

      

    # Traverse string and increment 

    # count of characters

    for i in range(0, len(str), 1):

          

        # 'a'-'a' will be 0, 'b'-'a' will be 1,

        # so for location of character in count 

        # array we wil do str[i]-'a'.

        charCount[ord(str[i]) - ord('a')] += 1

      

    # Traverse the hash array and print 

    # characters

    for i in range(0, MAX_CHAR, 1):

        for j in range(0, charCount[i], 1):

            print(chr(ord('a') + i), end = "")
