Write a method bubbleSort that performs a bubble sort,as described in Programming Project within the class ArraySorter, as shown in Listing so that it sorts the strings in an instance of the class ArrayList into lexicographic order instead of sorting the integers in an array into ascending order. For words, lexicographic order reduces to alphabetic order if all the words are in either lowercase or uppercase letters. You can compare two strings to see which is lexicographically first by using the String method compareTo, as described.

Add a method bubbleSort to the class ArraySorter, as given in Listing that performs a bubble sort of an array. The bubble sort algorithm examines all adjacent pairs of elements in the array from the beginning to the end and interchanges any two elements that are out of order. Each interchange makes the array more sorted than it was, until it is entirely sorted. The algorithm in pseudocode follows:

Bubble sort algorithm to sort an array a

Repeat the following until the array a is sorted:

for (index = 0; index < a.length − 1; index++)   if (a[index] > a[index + 1])      Interchange the values of a[index] and a[index + 1].

The bubble sort algorithm usually requires more time than other sorting methods.
