Bubble sort
































































Well, your C program was probably wrong and you were lucky. You can get away in C (not certain about its derivatives) with doing things wrong. As I recall, if you have back to back arrays declared in a C program.
































































E.g. // C array declaration































































int a[10];































































int b[10];
































































Then if you accessed a[10] you would be getting b[0]. Assuming your type boundaries were correct you would not get a bus error or segmentation violation. This is because C does not do boundary checking on array access.
































































Java is much more strict in that aspect.
