Ascending order values??

Question

Hi,
I need some small help regarding writing an algorithm. I want to find out maximum array values for given random array.
sample data:
Input :
A[5] = { 3,2,7,4,1}
//here i'm giving random values in an array
output :
1,2,3,4,7
// here i need output like ascending order
if anybody knows ,please help me.
Thank you,

If you just want the greatest value in an array, the simplest thing is to loop through it like this (assuming at least one element in the array):
int greatest = a[0];
for (int n = 1; n < a.length; n++) {
    if (a[n] > greatest)
        greatest = a[n];
sample data:
Input :
A[5] = { 3,2,7,4,1}
//here i'm giving random values in an array
output :
1,2,3,4,7
// here i need output like ascending order
But if you need to output the array in ascending order you will have to sort the array first. You can use the java.util.Arrays.sort() methods for that purpose:
int[] a = {3,2,7,4,1};
java.util.Arrays.sort(a);
for (int n = 0; n < a.length; n++) {
    if (n > 0) System.out.print(",");
    System.out.print(a[n]);
