Help the idiot plox!

Hey. I could use some help hear. i cant get my code to work. yes i know this is stupid as sin but its for a class. I have to place 3 names in order alphabeticly. how the names get in is unimportant, but what i need is the code to sort the names. you all would be tits ass kewl if you could tell me the right lines for this cuz i am tired of failling. lol.

Okay you can do this
Turn everything lowercase
get the first letter of the word
get it's hex decimal value
store it in a variable
compare variables with decimal values.
an asciitable would help.
I can't be arsed to write the code atm ( i r lazy )
