array program to arrange in ascending order but not getting correct output

Question

package book;
public class Jfile{
public static void main(String[] args) {

int a[] = {69,89,78,25,36,46}; // 343

int temp;
for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
{
for(int j=0;j<a.length-1;j++)
{
if(a[i]<a[j+1])// 0 1 2 3 4 5
{

temp=a[i];
a[i]=a[j+1];
a[j+1]=temp;
}

}
}

for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
System.out.print(a[i] + " ");

}

}

Have a closer look into the if statement of your second loop . You are confusing i with j.
And if you want ascending order you should only swap if a[j] > a[j + 1]

if(a[j] > a[j+1]){

temp = a[j];
a[j] = a[j+1];
a[j+1] = temp;

}
