Answer 1

The problem is that the value of 'l', which is your 'high' is always 0. In other words, after I input the length of the array, you never change the value of l.

Fix/
Add this at around line 14:
num = sc.nextInt();
a = new int[num];
l = a.length-1; <<<<------(this)

PS: This code was fairly difficult to read, I suggest you work on the readability of your code.

Answer 2
