A problem which i've been doing for hours

[snoop82]

dear profesional over here...please help me with this problem,i have been trying to solve this problem for pass few hours..and i am still a beginner but the task given to me was too tough for me..

this program has 3 errors..i am halfway stuck please help me..
below is da task given to me..please help and do explain me my mistake.
i want to improve..

--Create several files of integers to be used to test sorting methods. Make files of several sizes, for example, size 20, 200, and 2000. Make files that are in order, in reverse order, in random order, and partially in order. By keeping all this test data in files (rather than generating it with random numbers each time the program is run), the same data can be used to test different sorting methods, and hence it will be easier to compare their performance.

--Write a menu-driven program for testing various sorting methods. One option is to read a file of integers into a list. Other options will be to run one of various sorting methods on the list, to print the unsorted or the sorted list, and to quit. After the list is sorted and (optionally) printed, it should be discarded so that testing a later testing method will start with the same input data. Write the program such that each new sorting method will process the original input file.

--Include code in the program to calculate and print

a. CPU time
b. The number of comparisons of keys.
c. The number of assignments of list entries during sorting a list.

Counting comparisons and assignments requires setting up global variables and inserting code into each sorting procedure to increment one of these global variables each time a key comparison and entry assignment is made.

Stop opening new threads for the same issue. It's annoying. Do your own homework. If you get stuck because there is something that you don't know how to implement, ask a specific question.
