	      public static void main(String[] args) {

public class Sorting2 {

	      System.out.println(x);
}
	    }
}

This is my code ,i want to sort in descending the input that i made,,the problem is it does not output the descending order of the numbers i input. This is my sample input:

Enter: 2 6 8 5 7 9
Output: 9 8 7 6 5 2

But the output is:
Output: 100..............1,

because of the [100] i assigned in int [s], wil somebody help me? i really dont know how to fix it. I hope you can help me. Thank you in advance.
