Given an array of values which initially contains 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1, what does the array look like after bubble sort has executed 3 passes, which means that the largest 3 values have been moved to their correct positions in the array.

//Here is code in C++.

//include header

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

// function to print the array

void out_arr(int inp[], int len)

{

for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)

 cout << inp[i] << " ";

cout << endl;

}

// main function

int main()

{

   // decalare and initialize the array

int inp[] = {9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1};

//find the length of array

int len = sizeof(inp)/sizeof(inp[0]);

int x, y;

// perform bubble sort, only 3 pass

for (x = 0; x < 3; x++)  

{

for (y= 0; y< len-x-1; y++)

 if (inp[y] > inp[y+1])

 {

 int t=inp[y];

 inp[y]=inp[y+1];

 inp[y+1]=t;

 }

 cout<<"array after "<<x+1<<" pass"<<endl;

 // print the array after every pass

     out_arr(inp, len);

}

return 0;

}

Explanation:

Declare an integer array "inp" and initialize with {9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1}. Find the length of the array.In first pass of bubble sort, largest value is placed at the correct position in the array. And in the second, second largest value is placed at its correct position. After the n pass, array will be sorted. In each pass, each element is compared with the next element. if the value is greater than swap them. This continues for all elements in each pass. In the end of a pass a value is placed correctly. So if there is only 3 pass then 3 largest values will be placed at their right place.

Output:

8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9                                                                                                              

array after 2 pass                                                                                                            

7 6 5 4 3 2 1 8 9                                                                                                              

array after 3 pass                                                                                                            

6 5 4 3 2 1 7 8 9
