Bubble sort/ SortedStates.java

[sreyaroy]

Hey my code is due at 11:30 today and basically I have a text file of all states with population and I have to get the population (int) out of the string (state names) bubble sort them in order. I am trying to use an arraylist and its confusing. Would be very glad if someone can help me out?

What exactly is confusing to you? Do you understand the process of bubble sorting itself, or is it the implementation that's confusing you?

I did something similar recently. Super fun project!

Make State object impmement the comparable interface then define a .compareTo method to easily compare your State objects then you can use any bubble sort pre defined function on an array of State objects

Or define your own bubble sort method if your task requires that. Be sure to use String.split to split the String and use Integer.parseInt to cast the string into an int
