## sortlinkedlist

## **WARNING! VERY IMPORTANT!**

For this exercise a function will be tested **with the exam own main**. However the student **still needs** to submit a structured program:

This means that:

- The package needs to be named `package main`.
- The submitted code needs one declared function main(```func main()```) even if empty.
- The function main declared needs to **also pass** the `Restrictions Checker`(illegal functions tester). It is advised for the student to just empty the function main after its own testings are done.
- Every other rules are obviously the same than for a `program`.

### Instructions

You are given a linked list, where each node contains a single digit.
Write a function that sorts the list in descending order and return pointer/reference to new linked list

### Expected function and struct

```go
package piscine

type Node struct {
	Next *Node
	Num  int
}

func Sortll(node *Node) *Node {

}
```

### Usage
Here is a possible program to test your function:

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    piscine ".."
)

// I implemented pushBack for this

func main() {
	num1 := &piscine.Node{Num: 5}
	num1 = pushBack(num1, 1)
	num1 = pushBack(num1, 3)
	num1 = pushBack(num1, 1)
	num1 = pushBack(num1, 3)

	result := piscine.Sortll(num1)
	for tmp := result; tmp != nil; tmp = tmp.Next {
		fmt.Print(tmp.Num)
		if tmp.Next != nil {
			fmt.Print(" -> ")
		}
	}
	fmt.Println()
}
```

Its output:

```console
$> go build
$> ./main
5 -> 3 -> 3 -> 1 -> 1
```
