# put number names into array
number_names_arr=(first second third fourth fifth)

# use loop, because code duplication is a bad practice. 
# It repeats five times all commands it have inside.
for ((i = 0; i < 5; i++)); do
    # Prompt line
    echo "Enter ${number_names_arr[i]} number"

    # read inputted number into array

# pass the content of array to the sort command
printf '%s\n' "${numbers_arr[@]}" | sort -rn
