I wrote this simple code for bubble sort but it gives some random garbage values as output. Can someone please tell me my mistake. I tried to print the output of A[i]
and A[j]
in the function bubbleSort
and looks like it is working fine. But why is the printSortedArray
not giving the correct output? Thanks!
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void swap(int *a, int *b)
{
int temp;
temp=*a;
*a=*b;
*b=temp;
}
void printSortedArray(int A[],int size)
{
cout<<"the sorted array is"<<endl;
int i;
for(i=0;i<size;i++);
{
cout<<A[i]<<" ";
}
}
void bubbleSort(int A[],int size)
{
int i,j;
for(i=0;i<size;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<size-1-i;j++)
{
if(A[j]>A[j+1])
{
swap(A[j],A[j+1]);
}
}
}
}
int main()
{
int A[50]; int size,i;
cout<<"enter the size of the array: ";
cin>>size;
cout<<"Enter the "<<size<<" numbers to be sorted"<<endl;
for(i=0;i<size;i++)
{
cin>>A[i];
}
bubbleSort(A,size);
printSortedArray(A,size);
return 0;
}
for(i=0;i<size;i++);
The trailing semicolon does not belong there. This results in undefined behavior.
The end result is that this function printed one garbage value after the end of the array.
