So, you want to sort into an array... see: http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/java/sorting_arrays.html and/or: Java: Sort an array and/or: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#newwindow=1&q=sort+in+array+java

The instruction which can help you to sort an array is: 

Arrays.sort(your_array,Collections.reverseOrder());

Good luck :)

for a list

Collections.sort(list ,Collections.reverseOrder());

for an array

Arrays.sort(array, Collections.reverseOrder());
