void Quicksort(int info[],int left,int right){
int left;
int right;
int pivot = left + (right - left)/2;//it is the middle (will change sometimes but will end up in the middle
int temp;

while(left<=right){
	while(info[left] < pivot){
	left++;
	}
	while(info[right] < pivot){
	right--;
	}
	//swap feature
	if(left<=right){
	temp =	info[left];
	info[left]=info[right];
	info[right] = temp;

	left ++;
	right --;
	}


}

}

`attemp2.cpp(213)': between the parenthesis is the line number.
It would be line 2 in your example.

void Quicksort(int info[],int left,int right){  // <- left and right are declared here
int left;  // <-  you're declaring them again here

Look closely at the following snippet and compare it to your error message.

void Quicksort(int info[],int left,int right){
int left;
int right;

attemp2.cpp(213): error C2082: redefinition of formal parameter 'left'
attemp2.cpp(214): error C2082: redefinition of formal parameter 'right'


Do you know what redefinition means?
