Java - Bubble Sort





We often using sorting algorithm to sort numbers and strings. Also we have many sorting algorithms. I have explained here on how bubble sort algorithm works using Java programming Language. Look at the yellow color high lighting section on output to understand how algorithm works after each iteration.

The complete program and test run output are given below:

 

Source Code


import java.io.*;

 

 

class BubbleSort {

 

     

 

    public static void main(String[] args) {

 

            String inpstring = "";

            InputStreamReader input = new InputStreamReader(System.in);

            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(input);

 

            try

            {

                  System.out.print("Enter a Number Elements for BUBBLE SORT:");

                  inpstring = reader.readLine();

 

                  long max = Long.parseLong(inpstring);

                  long[] arrElements = new long[100];

                  for (int i = 0; i < max; i++)

                  {

                        System.out.print("Enter [" + (i + 1) + "] Element: ");

                        inpstring = reader.readLine();

                        arrElements[i] = Long.parseLong(inpstring);

                  }

                 

 

                  for(int i = 1; i < max; i++)

                  {

                        for(int j = 0; j < max - i; j++)

                        {

                              if(arrElements[j] > arrElements[j + 1])

                              {

                                    long temp = arrElements[j];

                                    arrElements[j] = arrElements[j + 1];

                                    arrElements[j + 1] = temp;

                              }

                        }

                        System.out.print("After iteration " + i + ": ");

                        for(int k = 0; k < max; k++)

                              System.out.print(arrElements[k] + " ");

                       

                        System.out.println("/*** " + i  + " biggest number(s) is(are) pushed to the end of the array ***/");

                  }

 

 

                  System.out.println("The numbers in ascending orders are given below:");

                  for (int i = 0; i < max; i++)

                  {

                        System.out.println(arrElements[i]);

                  }

 

            }

            catch (Exception e)

            {

                  e.printStackTrace();

            }

    }

}

Program for Ascending order of Numeric Values using BUBBLE SORT

 

Enter the total number of elements: 8

 

Enter [1] element: 80

Enter [2] element: 60

Enter [3] element: 40

Enter [4] element: 20

Enter [5] element: 10

Enter [6] element: 30

Enter [7] element: 50

Enter [8] element: 70

 

Before Sorting   : 80 60 40 20 10 30 50 70

After iteration 1: 60 40 20 10 30 50 70 80

After iteration 2: 40 20 10 30 50 60 70 80

After iteration 3: 20 10 30 40 50 60 70 80

After iteration 4: 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

After iteration 5: 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

After iteration 6: 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

After iteration 7: 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

 

The numbers in ascending orders are given below:

 

Sorted [1] element: 10

Sorted [2] element: 20

Sorted [3] element: 30

Sorted [4] element: 40

Sorted [5] element: 50

Sorted [6] element: 60

Sorted [7] element: 70

Sorted [8] element: 80
