PROGRAM :

package codingcorner.in;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class BubbleSort {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  int n, i, j, swap;
  int[] array = new int[100];
  Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

  System.out.print("How many Elements ? \t");
  n = scan.nextInt();
  for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
   System.out.print("Enter number" + (i + 1));
   array[i] = scan.nextInt();
  }
  scan.close();

  for (i = 0; i < (n - 1); i++) {
   for (j = 0; j < n - i - 1; j++) {
    if (array[j] > array[j + 1]) {
     swap = array[j];
     array[j] = array[j + 1];
     array[j + 1] = swap;
    }
   }
  }
  System.out.print("\nSorted list :\n");
  for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
   System.out.print(array[i] + "\t");
 }
}
