The corrected code:

PROCEDURE BubbleSort
 0000      DIM array(10):INTEGER
 000C      DIM i,j,temp:INTEGER
 001B      REM Initialize the array with some values
 0043      BASE 0
 0045      FOR i=0 TO 9
 0055        PRINT "Enter value for element "; i+1; ": ";
 007E        INPUT array(i)
 0087      NEXT i
 0092      REM Bubble sort algorithm
 00AA      FOR i=0 TO 8
 00BA        FOR j=0 TO 8-i
 00CE          IF array(j)>array(j+1) THEN
 00E4            temp=array(j)
 00EF            array(j)=array(j+1)
 0101            array(j+1)=temp
 0110          ENDIF
 0112        NEXT j
 011D      NEXT i
 0128      REM Print the sorted array
 0141      PRINT "Sorted array:"
 0152      FOR i=0 TO 9
 0162        PRINT array(i)
 016A      NEXT i
 0175      END

There wasn't much wrong, just enough to keep the procedure from running.
