"date" sorting program:

    
 
package com.ankur;
 
public class Date {

int dd;
int mm;
int yy;
 
Date(int dd, int mm, int yy) {
this.dd = dd;
this.mm = mm;
this.yy = yy;
}

public boolean isSuppliedDateLatest(Date date) {
boolean latest = false;
if(date.yy > this.yy) {
latest = true;
} else if(date.yy == this.yy && date.mm > this.mm) {
latest = true;
} else if(date.yy == this.yy && date.mm == this.mm && date.dd > this.dd) {
latest = true;
}
return latest;
}
}
 

package com.ankur;
 
public class DateSort {
 
public static void main(String[] args) {
 
Date[] dates = new Date[5];
dates[0] = new Date(31,12,1982);
dates[1] = new Date(15,12,1981);
dates[2] = new Date(14,12,1980);
dates[3] = new Date(18,11,1985);
dates[4] = new Date(18,8,2004);
 
//System.out.println(dates[0].isSuppliedDateLatest(dates[4]));

dates = DateSort.sortDates(dates);

for(int i = 0; i < dates.length; i++) {
System.out.println(dates[i].dd + "," + dates[i].mm + "," + dates[i].yy);
}
}
 
public static Date[] sortDates(Date[] dates) {
 
Date aDate = null;
Date bDate = null;

for (int i = 0; i < dates.length - 1; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < dates.length - 1; j++) {
aDate = dates[j];

}
}
