Thread: Insertion Sort with String Array error in the While loop at the bottom of the code

package InsertionSort;

public class InsertionSort {

public static void main(String a[]){
int i;
String array[] = {"I","N","S","E","R","T","I","O","N"};

System.out.println("Before sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
System.out.print( array[i]+" "); }
System.out.println();


insertion_srt(array, array.length);

System.out.print("After sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i <array.length; i++){
System.out.print(array[i]+" ");
System.out.println();}


}


public static void insertion_srt(String array[], int z){
for (int i = 1; i < z; i++){
int j = i;
String B = array[i];
while ((j > 0) && (array[j-1] > B)){
array[j] = array[j-1];
j--;
}
array[j] = B;
}
}

package InsertionSort;
 
public class InsertionSort {
 
public static void main(String a[]){
int i;
String array[] = {"I","N","S","E","R","T","I","O","N"};
 
System.out.println("Before sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
System.out.print( array[i]+" "); }
System.out.println();
 
insertion_srt(array, array.length);
 
System.out.print("After sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i <array.length; i++){
System.out.print(array[i]+" ");
System.out.println();}
 
}
 
public static void insertion_srt(String array[], int z){
for (int i = 1; i < z; i++){
int j = i;
String B = array[i];
while ((j > 0) && (array[j-1] > B)){
array[j] = array[j-1];
j--;
}
array[j] = B;
}
}

The error I get says:

bad operand types for binary operator '>'
first type: java.lang.String
second type: java.lang.String

Thank you for looking at the code.
I'm new here and I'm a beginner.
Here is the code below:

package InsertionSort;
 
public class InsertionSort {
 
public static void main(String a[]){
String array[] = {"I","N","S","E","R","T","I","O","N"};
int i;
 
System.out.println("Before sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
    System.out.print( array[i]+" "); }
    System.out.println();
 
insertion_srt(array, array.length);
 
System.out.print("After sort:\n");
for(i = 0; i <array.length; i++){
    System.out.print(array[i]+" ");
    System.out.println();}
 }
 
public static void insertion_srt(String array[], int z){
for (int i = 1; i < z; i++){
    int j = i;
    String B = array[i];
    while ((j > 0) && (array[j-1] > B)){
        array[j] = array[j-1];
        j--;}
    array[j] = B;}
}
}

^ Beat me to it.
