Thread: Why does the output for this program come out "reverse"?

Hi all,
I am trying to get ExchangeSort to output numbers from an array to be in increasing order, yet the results come out in decreasing order, or as I put it, in reverse. Can anyone tell me how to get the results in increasing order?

Code:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)
{
	int array[5];		// An array of integers.
	int length = 5;		// Length of the array.
	int i, j;
	int temp;
	
	//Some input
	for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
	{
		cout << "Enter a number: ";
		cin >> array[i];
	}

	//Algorithm
	for(i = 0; i < (length -1); i++)
	{
		
		for (j=(i + 1); j < length; j++)
		{
			if (array[i] < array[j])
			{
				temp = array[i];
				array[i] = array[j];
				array[j] = temp;
			}
		}
	}
	//Some output
	for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
	{
		cout << array[i] << endl;
	}

}

Example of input: (in order from first to last) 7, 3, 5, 6, 2

The result ends up as 7,6,5,3,2 instead of what should be 2,3,5,6,7. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks...now it works.
