e359. Sorting an Array
It's an extremely important skill to learn how to search the web. Not only will it increase your research and development talents, it will also save you from asking questions that have already been answered numerous times before. By doing a little research before you ask a question, you'll show that you're willing to work and learn without needing to have your hand held the entire time; a quality that is seemingly rare but much appreciated by the volunteers who are willing to help you.
If you've done the research, found nothing useful, and decide to post your question, it's a great idea to tell us that you've already searched (and what methodologies you used to do your research). That way, we don't refer you back to something you've already seen.

Sorting an array of integers into ascending order

Today I decided to blow the cobwebs off my old laptop and see what I could remember from my Java days.
As a task for myself to see what I could remember, I decided to try and write a program that does the following:
- Declares an array of 4 integers
- Sorts the array into ascending order, from lowest to highest.
- Prints on screen the sorted array.
After an hour or so I finally cracked it, and ended up with a working program. Here she is:
public class Sorting_arrays_1
    public static void main()
       int [] array = {4,3,7,1};
       //A variable used to help with swopping values
       int temporary;
          //finds the smallest number out of elements 0, 1, 2, and 3 of the array, then moves it to position 0
          for (int count = 0; count<array.length;count++)
            int smallestNumber = array[0];
            if (array[count] < smallestNumber)
                smallestNumber = array[count];
                temporary = array[0];
                array[0]=array[count];
                array[count]=temporary;
         //finds the smallest number out of elements 1, 2, and 3 of the array, then moves it to position 1
         for (int count = 1; count<array.length;count++)
            int smallestNumber = array[1];
            if (array[count] < smallestNumber)
                smallestNumber = array[count];
                temporary = array[1];
                array[1]=array[count];
                array[count]=temporary;
          //finds the smallest number out of elements 2 and 3 of the array, then moves it to position 2
          for (int count = 2; count<array.length;count++)
            int smallestNumber=array[2];
            if (array[count] < smallestNumber)
                smallestNumber = array[count];
                temporary = array[2];
                array[2]=array[count];
                array[count]=temporary;
         //prints the array in ascending order
         for (int count=0; count<array.length;count++)
             System.out.print(array[count] + " ");
}Could this code be simplified though? Maybe with a for loop?
I mean, it does the job, but it looks so clumbsy and inefficient... Imagine how much code I would need if I wanted to sort 1000 numbers..

Use bubble sort if u want a quick fix
public static void bubbleSort(int [] a)
for(int i=0; i<a.length-1; i++)
     for(int j=0; j<a.length-1-i; j++)
          if(a[j]>a[j+1])
               int temp = a[j];
               a[j]=a[j+1];
               a[j+1]=temp;
Or use Merge sort if u want better run time... ie.(N log N)

Variable selection screen- text in ascending order

Hi All,
Is there a way to display the medium/long text description in ascending order in selection screen? rather than displaying the key in ascending order. is it possible?
thanks

Hi Abby,
you can arrange the variables only in the querydesigner. In the settings you can choose the order of the variables.
I hope this will help.
Kind regards,

How To: Sort Numbers in Ascending Order in a Generated List

Greetings! How do I set up a Generated List of Paragraphs so that it sorts in true ascending order? What I want is:
1.1
1.2
1.3
1.4
1.5
1.6
1.7
1.8
1.9
1.10
I have tried every trick I can think of with the sort order listed on the reference page. But all I can get is something that sorts by individual number (ignoring the numeric value) like:
1.1
1.10
1.11
1.2
1.20
1.21
1.3
Any help is much appreciated!

Hello there, Michael! Thanks so much for looking at my post! Alas, the LOP will not work. I should have explained more, but it was so complicated I thought folks would give up reading.
Here's the best I can render it without getting permission to share a good example document. I do not blame anyone if it's too cumbersome or convoluted to wade through...
This is a requirements document which has sort of a "legal" tinge to it--as the document evolves we must maintain traceability for individual requirements. This means, for example:
Version 1 - I have requirements 1 and 2.
Version 2 - I need to add a new requirement, which should appear before requirement 1 in the document. Even though it comes before requirement 1 in the document, numerically it will be requirement 3 and requirement 1 will remain requirement 1.
Version 3 - I need to remove requirement 2. Even though I now have only 2 requirements, their numbers will not change (they remain requirements 1 and 3, appearing in reverse order).
Version 4 - I need to move requirement 3 to be after requirement 1. Again, the requirements keep their original number, even though their position has changed and there is no longer a "requirement 2" number in use.
Originally, I told the team (I'm doing this for a different dept), that they would have to hand-number requirements, which they did for a while. But that was getting very cumbersome, and the scenarios above are limited to one or two occurrences per document. So I created an auto-number sequence for them to use in the initial version and added a little smoke-and-mirrors work process to take care of changes in later versions. The last bit of chicanery I cannot get to work is the index...
Even if there are no changes to the requirements after the initial version, the index still does not sort in ascending numeric order. It was working with the hand-numbered requirements because they were using leading zeros. But without being able to include leading zeros in the auto-numbering formats (I tried the "use a zero as a tab leader" solution and like to have thrown my new monitor out of the window), I cannot find a solution.
Or rather, I think the solution is "you have to hand-number requirements".
For anyone who has made it this far, I truly appreciate your time and patience!

You may have easier luck writing your own comparator for this. These are headings in a table of contents, right?
Write a comparator that tokenizes a string on the '.' character, or use a StringBuffer to remove them, and then order the elements according to the combined numbers. Since alphanumeric would order this list as you want it anyway you could just order that way once the '.' are removed.
In other words your comparator would do this in the "compare" method:
public class MyComparator implements Comparator, java.io.Serializable {
private static Comparator stringComparator = java.text.Collator.getInstance();
...constructor(s), your own private "instance" variable of type MyComparator, a getInstance() method of your own, yadda yadda...
public int compare(Object item1, Object item2) {
try {
value1 = removePeriods((String)item1);
value2 = removePeriods((String)item2);
if (value1 == null) {
return (value2 == null) ? 0 : (-1);
return compare(value1, value2);
} catch (ClassCastException cce) {
System.err.println("Wrong Object Type, JackAss!");
protected int compare(String str1, String str2) {
return MyComparator.stringComparator.compare(str1, str2);
private String removePeriods(String value) {
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(value);
int decimalIndex = value.indexOf('.');
while (decimalIndex != -1) {
sb.delete(decimalIndex, (decimalIndex + 1));
}

Accessing the records in ascending order using index hint

I am getting a problem in selecting the rows using the index hint which in i want to query in the ascending order.
for eg.
select /*+ index(temp_itr_header,tmp_itrhdr_1#IDX2) */ person_id
from temp_itr_header

Oracle knows that it doesn't have to resort data if it accessed individual rows from an index with the same sort order. In other words, adding the ORDER BY clause need not cause Oracle to do any extra work. Adding the ORDER BY does guarantee that the results will be sorted and will tend to cause Oracle to use the index, assuming it can avoid the sort that way. If you don't have an ORDER BY, Oracle is free to return rows in whatever order it would like regardless of your hint.
If you want to use the index hint, the syntax is
SELECT /*+ INDEX(temp_itr_header <<index name>>) */Note that you do not want to have a comma in your hint. Of course, if your statistics are accurate, you shouldn't need to resort to a hint here-- the CBO should pick the most efficient path.

Apache: showing images in ascending order by name

hi:
i have several detail pages where i show images contained in
a folder:
$folder = dir($path);
while ($folderEntry = $folder->read()){
if ($folderEntry <> "." && $folderEntry
<> ".." &&
substr($folderEntry, -6, 2) <> "00") {
echo '<li><img src="'.$path.$folderEntry.'"
/></li>';
$folder->close();
in the local server they appear in the way i want, in
ascending order by
name (img_01.jpg, img_02.jpg, img_03.jpg, ...) but in the
remote server
they appear in, apparently, random order
i activated FancyIndexing in the httpd.conf file but it
doesn't solved
the problem:
# Directives controlling the display of server-generated
directory
listings.
# FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing
or
standard
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
# End of indexing directives.
i know i can store the filenames names in an array an sort it
but i
prefer to control it in the server
local (OS X 10.4.10)

remote (Red Hat Linux 2.6.9-34.ELsmp)

Templeton's suggestion is best if needing help with Microsoft Entourage. Since I know the answer is "not possible" I can at least steer you toward an AppleScript that will give you a workaround. Have a look here <http://www.barryw.net/weblog/files/category-5.html>.
Further questions about this script should be directed either to its author or to Microsoft's Entourage newsgroup <http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.mac.office.entourage>.

Output to appear in ascending order

Could someone please help me to get the contents of my output file in ascending order.
I am reading a file mnf.xml kept inside my jar, the contents of it are
<assets>
</assets>I am writing the contents of the file mnf.xml to an output file, and am also adding the pdf filenames found in the directory.
The contents of the output file after running the program are
<assets>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_03.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_02.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_01.pdf"/>
</assets>
But I need my output to be in the following order
<assets>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_01.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_02.pdf"/>
<pdf_files name="assets/123_001_ch_03.pdf"/>
</assets>
My code is
void fileMNF(File RootDir, String jTextField1Text)
     String filename=jTextField1Text.substring(0,jTextField1Text.lastIndexOf("."))+"_mnf.xml";
     String Assetsdir=RootDir+"\\"+"assets";
     File files=new File(Assetsdir);
     String[] lists=files.list();
     try
          int val;
          char ch;
          InputStream is=getClass().getResourceAsStream("/Inputs/mnf.xml");
          File dstfile=File.createTempFile("mnf", ".xml");
          dstfile.deleteOnExit();
          FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(dstfile);
          int b;
          while((b = is.read()) != -1)
               fos.write(b);
          fos.close();
          File inputfile=new File(dstfile.getAbsolutePath());
          File outputfile=new File(filename);
          BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputfile));
          BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(outputfile));
          String line;
          while ((line=in.readLine()) != null)
               if(line.startsWith("<assets>"))
                    for(int i=0;i<lists.length;i++)
                         if(lists.endsWith(".pdf"))
                              line = PDFLineInsert(line,lists[i]);
               out.write(line);
               out.newLine();
               out.flush();
          in.close();
          out.close();
     catch(Exception e)
          System.out.println(e.getMessage());
private String PDFLineInsert(String line, String PDF)
     String res = "";
     res = line.replace("<assets>", "<assets>\n\r<pdf_files name=\"assets/"+PDF+"\"/>");
     return res;

Your PDFLineInsert method is inserting your lines at the beginning of the file.
You should change your logic to write the new lines as you get them. something like this:
          while ((line=in.readLine()) != null)
               if(line.startsWith("<assets>"))
                   out.write(line);
                   out.newLine();
                    for(int i=0;i<lists.length;i++)
                         if(lists.endsWith(".pdf"))
                              out.write("<pdf_files name=\"assets/"+lists[i]+"\"/>");
                              out.newLine();
               out.write(line);
               out.newLine();
               out.flush();
          in.close();
          out.close();

HT4221 I arranged my photos in order on my PC and when I synced them to my ipad they appeared in a completely different order. How can I get my folders to transfer exactly how they are on my PC?

I arranged my photos in order and in folders on my PC. When I synced them to my IPad they were in the correct folders but completely out of order. How can I get them to sync in the order they appear on my PC?.

On iOS 5 (if viewing individual photo albums on the iPad) the photo sorting order should be by filename, on iOS 4 it's date taken (from here) :
iOS 4 sorts photos by the Date Taken tag of the photos. Specifically, your device uses the pictures' EXIF tags to determine the Date Taken information. Your device will look for the following EXIF tags within your pictures:
Capture Date
Date Time Digitized
Date Time Original
Last Modified
So you will need to change their names or their dates

Doesn't Sort data in Ascending order in Hash Table?

Hello
I am using JSP, Servlets. After quering in servlets, putting data in HashTable then set attribute in servlets, get attribute in JSP & retrieving data from HashTable in JSP & putting in select html element, data is not coming in ascending order in select drop down box. I need A,B,C,D but it is coming b,d,c,a. When I run query in DB, it shows in sequence but after putting in HashTable, it is not coming in sequence.
How to make it ascending?
Looking forward for an early reply.
Thanks.

Hi
Something to do with TreeMap(TreeSet). I tried with TreeSet but it didn't work. Here is the code :
In servlet :
Connection lConnection = getConnection(pRequest);
String lSQL = "";
Statement lStatement;
ResultSet lResultSet;
Hashtable lLtypeHashtable = new Hashtable();
lStatement = lConnection.createStatement();
lSQL = "SELECT RCID,RCMEANING FROM REFERENCECODES WHERE RCDOMAIN = 'LOCATIONTYPE' AND RCROWSTATE > 0 order by RCMEANING";
lResultSet = lStatement.executeQuery(lSQL);
while(lResultSet.next())
String lRcid = lResultSet.getString(1);
String lRcmeaning = lResultSet.getString(2);
lLtypeHashtable.put(lRcid.trim(),lRcmeaning.trim());
if(lResultSet != null) lResultSet.close();
if(lStatement != null) lStatement.close();
pRequest.setAttribute("LtypeHashtable",lLtypeHashtable);
//Below Query is executed when one data from select element is selected
String lLType = DisplayUtilities.getString(pRequest.getParameter("LType"),true);
//LType is name of select element in JSP.
if (lLType != null)
lSQL = lSQL + " AND " + lUpperCaseFunction + "(LOCATIONTYPE)" +
" = " + DBUtilities.formatString(lLType.toUpperCase());
pRequest.setAttribute("rLType",lLType+"");
In JSp :
<%
Hashtable lLtypeHashtable = (Hashtable)request.getAttribute("LtypeHashtable");
%>
<TR>
<TD width="15%"> <div align="left">
<select name="LType" size="1" >
<option Value="">< Select ></option>
<%
if(lLtypeHashtable != null)
Enumeration enum = lLtypeHashtable.keys();
while(enum.hasMoreElements())
String key = (String)enum.nextElement();
String value = (String)lLtypeHashtable.get(key);
String flagBack = "";
if(key.equals((String)request.getAttribute("rLType")))
flagBack = "selected";
%>
<option Value="<%=key%>" <%=flagBack%>><%=value%></option>
<%
%>
</select></div>
</TD>
</TR>
How should I implement TreeSet?
Looking forward for an early reply.
