    int b[5] = { 25, 17, 1, 90, 3 } ;
    int c[10] ;
    int i, j, k, temp ;

    clrscr( ) ;

    printf ( "Merge sort.\n" ) ;

    printf ( "\nFirst array:\n" ) ;
    for ( i = 0 ; i <= 4 ; i++ )
        printf ( "%d\t", a[i] ) ;

    printf ( "\n\nSecond array:\n" ) ;
    for ( i = 0 ; i <= 4 ; i++ )
        printf ( "%d\t", b[i] ) ;

    for ( i = 0 ; i <= 3 ; i++ )
    {
        for ( j = i + 1 ; j <= 4 ; j++ )
        {
            if ( a[i] > a[j] )
            {
                temp = a[i] ;
                a[i] = a[j] ;
                a[j] = temp ;
            }
            if ( b[i] > b[j] )
            {
                temp = b[i] ;
                b[i] = b[j] ;
                b[j] = temp ;
            }
        }
    }

    for ( i = j = k = 0 ; i <= 9 ; )
    {
        if ( a[j] <=  b[k] )
            c[i++] = a[j++] ;
        else
            c[i++] = b[k++] ;

        if ( j == 5 || k == 5 )
            break ;
    }

    for ( ; j <= 4 ; )
        c[i++] = a[j++] ;

    for ( ; k <= 4 ; )
        c[i++] = b[k++] ;

    printf ( "\n\nArray after sorting:\n") ;
    for ( i = 0 ; i <= 9 ; i++ )
        printf ( "%d\t", c[i] ) ;

    getch( ) ;
