sorting

[learner21]

Please clear my doubt. I used the following logic to sort the numbers in ascending order... The logic seems to be right(correct me if i'm wrong).

for(j=0;j<10;j++)
{
    min=a[0];
    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
    {
        if(a[i]<min&&a[i]>a[x])
        {
	 min=a[i];
	 x=i;
        }
    }
   cout<<"\n"<<min;
}

But i don't get the expected output. I've initialized x to 0 in the beginning.

since you initialize x to 0, this means

if(a[0]<min&&a[0]>a[0])

no element of 'a' is changed so you don't sort anything.

[learner21]

Can you please say why the elements of 'a' is not changed?

[coder777]

that 'a[...]' is not modified should be quite obvious. If you don't want to then you logic is wrong:

int x = INT_MIN; // note
for(j=0;j<10;j++)
{
    min=INT_MAX; // note
    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
    {
        if(a[i]<min&&a[i]>x) // note x not a[x]
        {
	 min=a[i];
        }
    }
    x = min; // note
   cout<<"\n"<<min;
}

That should work (not tested though)

Can you please say why the elements of 'a' is not changed?

for(j=0;j<10;j++)  // Assigning values to j
{
    min=a[0]; // Assigning value to min
    for(i=0;i<10;i++) // Assigning values to i
    {
        if(a[i]<min&&a[i]>a[x])
        {
	 min=a[i]; // Assigning value to min
	 x=i; // Assigning value to x
        }
    }
   cout<<"\n"<<min;
}

I've marked in your code everywhere that you assign a value. You don't assign a value to 'a' anywhere, so how can you expect it to be changed?

Thank you guys... :)
