{
    static String arr[]= ("Now","My","There","When");
        public static void main(String[] args) 
    {

        for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++)
        {
            for(int j=0;j<arr.length;j++)
            {
                if(arr[i].compareTo(arr[j])<0)
                {
                    String t=arr[j];
                    arr[j]=arr[i];
                    arr[i]=t;
                }
            }
        }
    }

Use braces instead of paratheses around the array initializer.

 static String arr[]= {"Now","My","There","When"};
