Putting elements from file in descending order without built in functions

Question

I re-did the program following the bubble sort.

def main():
try:
    array=[]
    file=open(input(\"Please enter the name of the file you wish to open:\" ))
             


        

Answer 1

I finished it! I just had to figure out a different way to turn my list into integers. Here it is:

def main():
try:
    file=open(input("Please enter the name of the file you wish to open:" ))
    A = []
    #Here I convert the list to integers to separate as numbers in order to sort later
    for val in file.read().split():
        A.append(int(val))
    file.close()
    n = len(A)
    print ("These following", n,"numbers are in the inputted file:\n", A)

    for i in range(n):
        for j in range(1,n-i):
            if A[j-1] < A[j]:
                (A[j-1], A[j]) = (A[j],A[j-1]) #swap
    print("We can now organize it in descending order:\n", A)

    Output_File = input("Where would you like to save this data?")
    fileObject = open(Output_File, 'a')
    fileObject.write(str(Output_File)+'\n')
    print("Your file is now saved as",Output_File,".\nHave a nice day!")
    fileObject.close()

except IOError as e:
    print("({})".format(e))
