I got the delaration syntax error, as above. situated at line 9

[jsmith]

void main()
void sort(int a[], int b[], int elements)
{

You cannot implement functions inside of functions.

[ineedyourhelp]

oh thx, so how can i correct it ?

[iharrold]

Implement it outside of main

void sort (int a[], int b[], int elements)
{
    //Code here
}

int main()
{
    //Code here
    return 0;
}

Or.... forward declare and implement below main

void sort (int a[], int b[], int elements);

int main()
{
    //Code here
    return 0;
}

void sort (int a[], int b[], int elements)
{
    //Code here
}

Also please use the CODE tags.

I tried what you mention above but i still get the some error >.< What's wrong actually ?

[Seraphimsan]

post your edited code and maybe we can tell you bud :P

kk, Soo, You're still making the exact same mistake. You can't implement a function inside of a function.

You're still implementing main() inside of sort()..Also your code is very hard to read. For future reference please use proper tabbing and place your code inside the code tags. I'd like to help but I really can't read your code.. I apologize for this.
