You might think through your requirements one more time.
What happens when the first parameter does not match the number of
digits in the second parameter? If this condition is never supposed to
occur then why enter the first parameter? Simply calculate the number
of digits from the number entered and sort its digits.

Your split subprogram is a lot of work. You can achieve the same
results by converting the number to a string, which is an array of
characters. Sort that array and output the results. The 'Image
attribute will convert the number to its corresponding string
representation.
