Sort array in java without sort method

Arrays sort() method is used for sorting the elements in an Array.

It consists of two variations, one in which it sorts the entire array, it may be an integer or character array. Another one allows sorting a specific part of the array by passing the starting and ending indices.

Below is a simple example that uses the method to arrange an array of integers in ascending order.

Explanation: In this example, we sorts the integer array and a character array using Arrays.sort().

Then it prints both arrays in ascending order. The character “ repeats in the output because it appears twice in the original array. Sorting does not remove duplicates, it only reorders elements.

Note: When we sorting an array of primitive types, Arrays.sort() does not allow us to provide a custom comparator.
