Selection sort with recursion

[Zompies 20]

I have spent my previous day trying to solve this problem in my book. The problem was sort a array using the selection sort with recursion but to find the largest element and swap it with the end of the array. I spent like 4+ hours trying to solve it and it wouldn't work and I ended up in frustration and pissed off. It's like 5AM and I can't sleep because I kept getting the itch to try to solve it again and I finally said fuck it and I actually solved it. Here is the code.

#include <stdio.h>

void print_array(int, int[]);
void selection_sort(int, int[], int);

int main(void)
{
	const int LEN = 8;
	int arr[] = {5,2,1,6,83,17,93,10};

	int start = LEN;

	printf("Before sort\n");
	print_array(LEN, arr);

	//sort
	selection_sort(LEN, arr, start);

	printf("After sort\n");
	print_array(LEN, arr);

	return 0;
}

void print_array(int len, int arr[]){
	for(int i = 0; i < len; i++){
		printf("%d ", arr[i]);
	}
	printf("\n");
}

void selection_sort(int len, int arr[], int start_pos){
	/*
	 * This sort starts at the end of the array and searches
	 * for the highest element, it will find the index for the largest element
	 * and swap that to the end of the array, what ever element is at end of array
	 * goes where the largest element was
	 */

	int largest_index;

	//pos_of_unsorted = last element of array
	int pos_of_unsorted = start_pos - 1;

	largest_index = pos_of_unsorted; // assume its the start of our position

	// while we are above the first element, if we are -1 array is finished sorting
	// we then return to the caller
	if(pos_of_unsorted > 0){

		for(int i = pos_of_unsorted; i > 0; i--){
			if(arr[largest_index] < arr[i - 1]){
				largest_index = i - 1;
			}
		}

		//swap elements
		//set temp to last element
		int temp = arr[pos_of_unsorted]; //2 3 1
		//set last element to largest element
		arr[pos_of_unsorted] = arr[largest_index]; // 2 3 3
		//set where we found largest element to the previous last value
		arr[largest_index] = temp; // 2 1 3

		// pass in our length, our array, and our new position.
		selection_sort(len, arr, pos_of_unsorted);
	}
}

Please format your code so that it's readable

More the every line a different color thing.

You could just give a pastebin link. That solves all the problems. :')
