I am trying to heap sort an array of ints.
My code stops executing after the ins() function.
What is the fault here?

j=n-1;

while(j>=1)
{
    item=del(tree,j,item);
    tree[j+1]=item;
}

Where do you update j inside of this loop?

Where do you update j inside of this loop?

Yeah I figured it out,i had forgotten to decrement j.
Thanks...you are an angel
