Problem 1 of 3 (Help Please!!!)

Question

OK...here is my first problem. I am getting an error when i try to compile my sort number test program. Can anyone point out what i am doing wrong.
Here is the class file
public class SortFloat {
// Loops through each element of the array.
// Each time through, find the smallest remaining element, and move it
// to the first unsorted position in the array.
public static void SortFloat(double[] nums) {
for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
int min = i; // holds the index of the smallest element
// find the smallest one between i and the end of the array
for(int j = i; j < nums.length; j++) {
if (nums[j] < nums[min]) min = j;
// swap the smallest one with element i.
// This leaves all elements between 0 and i sorted.
double tmp;
tmp = nums;
nums[i] = nums[min];
nums[min] = tmp;
Here is the test file
     public static void main(String[] args) {
double[] nums = new double[10]; // Create an array to hold numbers
for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) // Generate random numbers
nums[i] = Math.random() * 100;
sort(nums); // Sort them
for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) // Print them out
System.out.println(nums[i]);

Bizarro World Error Message Theory: Error messages, whether from the compiler or the runtime, are not your enemy. They are the friend you know will always be honest with you, even when it hurts. They're telling you something's going wrong. Don't panic. It can be fixed.
Moral: The compiler will tell you exactly what the error is, where the error is, and give you a good clue as to how to fix it. Don't expect others to sift through your code, searching for bugs. At least have the good form to tell them where the problem is.
That said, you're calling "sort(nums);" in your test main() method, but I don't see that method defined. Also, you've got a method in your SortFloat class that's named exactly the same thing as the class, but it's supposed to sort a double[] - use regular naming conventions and call it sortDouble(double[] d) or something... I didn't look at anything else that might be a problem - you can let us know what the compiler error is...
P.S. When you post code, please use [code] and [/code] tags as described in Formatting Help on the message entry page. It makes it much easier to read.
