    Red face please see my program

    there is some problem in my code please help me to find it


    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <iostream>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    int c;
    void insertionsort(int x[],int length)
    {
    int key,i;
    for(int j=1;j<length;j++)
    {
    key=x[j];
    i=j-1;
    while(x[i]>key && i>=0)
    {
    x[i+1]=x[i];
    i--;
    }
    x[i+1]=key;
    }
    printf("After  insertionsort: ");
    for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    printf(" %d ", x[i]);
    }
    printf("\n");
    }
    
    void recursive_quicksort(int arr[], int low, int high ) {
    int i = low;
    int j = high;
    
    /* compare value */
    int z = arr[(low + high) / 2];
    
    /* partition */
    do {
    /* find member above ... */
    while(arr[i] < z) i++;
    
    /* find element below ... */
    while(arr[j] > z) j--;
    int y;
    if(i <= j) {
    /* swap two elements */
    y = arr[i];
    arr[i] = arr[j];
    arr[j] = y;
    i++;
    j--;
    }
    } while(i <= j);
    
    /* recurse */
    if(low < j)

    It's not surprising you can't find any problems in your code - you have absolutely no structure! The compiler doesn't care how your code is formatted, but other programmers do. You'll find you'll get a lot more help from others when you provide neatly formatted code (and, oddly enough, you might find you need less help from others if you format your code!)

    Assuming this is supposed to be a C program, the first thing you need to do is remove the <iostream> library - that's a C++ library.

    Now, can you be a bit more explicit about what problem you're having? If I had to guess, I'd say it was with your choosePivot function. It appears to do nothing. Look there first.

    To follow up what kmess said.
    Read this -> SourceForge.net: Indentation - cpwiki
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    I thought there was no programme without a "main()" function....???
    this programme doesn't have one so isn't it a basic mistake...??

    It's there... look again.

    The OP needs to do several very important things...

    1) learn how to indent code so that it is readable... Indentation sould reflect levels of loops and if statements... Salem has provided a very good link for this.

    2) Read the actual error messages from his compiler and linker and eliminate them one by one.

    3) if the program compiles he needs to test run it, knowing behaviorally where it acts up provides powerful hints where the problems are.


    In any event... coming in here and asking us to fix his broken code without even ha hint of what's wrong is very unlikely to work, even at the most generous of times.

    I guess we have different motivations in helping people. For instance, I like to see that people are making progress toward solving their problems. What's your motivation?

    Old saying.... "You can't help anyone who's not asking for help"...

    The best motivation here --given that a huge majority of posts are from people taking classes-- is to educate.
    The best way to educate is to motivate people toward self-actualization... point them in the right direction and hope they can read a compass.
