Sorting an array without changing position of negative numbers

# Python3 implementation of the approach 

# Function to sort the array such that 
# negative values do not get affected 
def sortArray(a, n): 

	# Store all non-negative values 
	ans=[] 
	for i in range(n): 
		if (a[i] >= 0): 
			ans.append(a[i]) 

	# Sort non-negative values 
	ans = sorted(ans) 

	j = 0
	for i in range(n): 

		# If current element is non-negative then 
		# update it such that all the 
		# non-negative values are sorted 
		if (a[i] >= 0): 
			a[i] = ans[j] 
			j += 1

	# Print the sorted array 
	for i in range(n): 
		print(a[i],end = " ")
