    Bubble Sort-question

    Hey!!!I have a question!!!!Why at the following code,which is an implematation of the bubble sort :
    #include <stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
    int a[10]={34,2,56,78,34,5,76,10,47,29};
    int n=10;
    int i,j,temp;
    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
    {
    for(j=0;j<n-i;j++)
    {
    if(a[j]>a[j+1])
    {
    temp=a[j];
    a[j]=a[j+1];
    a[j+1]=temp;
    }
    }
    }
    we use this command for(i=0;i<10;i++) and not this for(i=0;i<=10;i++)???

    If an array is defined as

    Code:
    int a[10];
    What are the first and last element index of the array as used by c/c++?

    There is also an improvment you can make to your bubble-sort that will give a small performance improvement when the data is in near-sort order.

    So why for(i=0;i<10;i++) then and not for(i=0;i<=10;i++) ??
