using namespace std;

void counting_sort(int a[], int n)
{
int max_size = 1000;

int counter[max_size] = {0};

for(int i=0; i<n; i++)
{
    counter[a[i]]++;
}

for(int i=0; i < max_size; i++)
{
    while(counter[i] != 0)

        counter[i]--;
    }
}

return;

}

int main()

int n;
cin>>n;

int a[n];

Hi abhishek,

the only problem in the code is the maxSize u have considered is small
update it to :
int max_size = 1000001;
and ur code is good to go
