array sort method java code example

Example 1: sort array java

import java. util. Arrays;
Arrays. sort(array);

Example 2: Arrays.sort() in java

// how to sort an array in java without using sort method
public class WithoutUsingSortMethod
{
   public static void main(String[] args) 
   {
      int temp;
      int[] arrNumbers = {14, 8, 5, 54, 41, 10, 1, 500};
      System.out.println("Before sort: ");
      for(int num : arrNumbers)
      {
         System.out.println(num);
      }
      for(int a = 0; a <= arrNumbers.length - 1; a++)
      {
         for(int b = 0; b <= arrNumbers.length - 2; b++)
         {
            if(arrNumbers[b] < arrNumbers[b + 1])
            {
               temp = arrNumbers[b];
               arrNumbers[b] = arrNumbers[b + 1];
               arrNumbers[b + 1] = temp;
            }
         }
      }
      System.out.println("---------------");
      System.out.println("After sort: ");
      for(int num : arrNumbers)  
      {
         System.out.println(num);
      }
   }
}

Example 3: java sort method

Arrays.sort();//this method is an inbuild function in java
//to sort the array

Example 4: how to sort an array

import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaExample 
{
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
    	int count, temp;
    	
    	//User inputs the array size
        Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter number of elements you want in the array: ");
        count = scan.nextInt();
    
        int num[] = new int[count];
        System.out.println("Enter array elements:");
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) 
        {
            num[i] = scan.nextInt();
        }
        scan.close();
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) 
        {
            for (int j = i + 1; j < count; j++) { 
                if (num[i] > num[j]) 
                {
                    temp = num[i];
                    num[i] = num[j];
                    num[j] = temp;
                }
            }
        }
        System.out.print("Array Elements in Ascending Order: ");
        for (int i = 0; i < count - 1; i++) 
        {
            System.out.print(num[i] + ", ");
        }
        System.out.print(num[count - 1]);
    }
}

Example 5: java array sort by element

//sort array of array of integer by the second element;
int[][] array = new int[m][2];
//initialize array
Arrays.sort(array, (a,b)-> Integer.compare(a[1], b[1]));
