Looks like you've got two problems in your script - obviously both with the linewhile [ $j -le ${problem_arr[@]} ]
First: ${problem_arr[@]} will yield ALL array members and the shell should complain when trying to compare. I guess you want it to read ${#problem_arr[@]} which yields the count of members in array.
Second: You correctly start the loop at j=0, but you run it one too far up - ${problem_arr[${#problem_arr[@]}]} will be empty and thus sed complains. make the comparison [ $j -lt ... ] and it will fly.

UASORT(3) 1 UASORT(3)
uasort - Sort an array with a user-defined comparison function and maintain index association
SYNOPSIS
bool uasort (array &$array, callable $value_compare_func)
DESCRIPTION
This function sorts an array such that array indices maintain their correlation with the array elements they are associated with, using a
user-defined comparison function.
This is used mainly when sorting associative arrays where the actual element order is significant.
Note
If two members compare as equal, their relative order in the sorted array is undefined.
PARAMETERS
o $array
- The input array.
o $value_compare_func
- See usort(3) and uksort(3) for examples of user-defined comparison functions.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Basic uasort(3) example
<?php
// Comparison function
function cmp($a, $b) {
if ($a == $b) {
return 0;
}
return ($a < $b) ? -1 : 1;
}
// Array to be sorted
$array = array('a' => 4, 'b' => 8, 'c' => -1, 'd' => -9, 'e' => 2, 'f' => 5, 'g' => 3, 'h' => -4);
print_r($array);
// Sort and print the resulting array
uasort($array, 'cmp');
print_r($array);
?>
The above example will output:
Array
(
[a] => 4
[b] => 8
[c] => -1
[d] => -9
[e] => 2
[f] => 5
[g] => 3
[h] => -4
)
Array
(
[d] => -9
[h] => -4
[c] => -1
[e] => 2
[g] => 3
[a] => 4
[f] => 5
[b] => 8
)
