some one please tell me what is the problem here is the code

        public class sortm {
public static void main(String args\[\])
{
	
	int a\[\]={5,3,7,2,8};
	int b\[\]={1,9,4,8,10};
	int i=1;
	int j=1;
	int t=0;
	int s=0;
	for( i=1;i<=5;i++)
	{
		if(a\[i\]>a\[i+1\])
			t=a\[i\];
		a\[i\]=a\[i+1\];
		a\[i+1\]=t;
		
	}
	for( i=1;i<=5;i++){
	System.out.println(a\[i\]);
	}
	
	for(j=0;j<=5;j++)
	{
		if(b\[j\]>b\[j+1\])
			s=b\[j\];
		b\[j\]=b\[j+1\];
		b\[j+1\]=s;
	}
	for(j=0;j<=5;j++)
	{
		System.out.println(b\[j\]);
	}
}

}

and this what running say : Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 5 at sortm.main(sortm.java:14)

in the above code you stored array with five elements so yor index range from 0 to 4 you mention i=1 and maxmium is 5 so for iterations i become 5 at that time it will give arrayoutbound exception you can just change for( i=1;i<5;i++) { if(a[i]>a[i+1]) t=a[i]; a[i]=a[i+1]; a[i+1]=t; } it will execute

sorry but you solution didnt work, there is problem in in this statement a[i]>a[i+1] ,when i be 5 ,it is in a[5]>a[6], so compiler search for a[6] and dont found,so here gave me the problem ,and by the way what is a[i]>a[i+1] i didnt get it thank you

Your arrays have indexes from 0 to 4. So 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 are the ONLY valid values. Print out 'i' and print out 'i+1' BEFORE you use it as an array index. If either of those are greater than 4 then it is a bug. Print out 'j' and print out 'j+1' BEFORE you use it as an array index. If either of those are greater than 4 then it is a bug.

iknow that but i want to sort array as the code show but compiler when a[i] reach the final one a[4] it compare it with a[5] which it is not exist , i want to it stop compare when it reach the final index is there any code that could help me???

Then check the value of the index before the compare. Or change your for statement so it counts from 0 to 3, then when i is equal to 3, i+1 will evaluate to 4 and still be a valid index.

the arrays index no start with zero, and you enter here 5 element in array, so the last elent index no is 4 and you take loop upto 5 index no hense it raised error array index out of bound int a[]={1,2,3,4,5]; for(inti=0;i<5;i++) System.out.println(a[i]); or for(int i=0;i<=4;i++) or for(int i=0;i
