Programming

c++ Please explain why its wrong.

The findDisorder function is supposed to find the first item inan array that
is less than the element preceding it, and set the p parameter topoint to
that item, so the caller can know the location of that item.Explain why this
function won't do that, and show how to fix it. Your fix must be tothe
function only; you must not change the the main routine below inany way,
yet as a result of your fixing the function, the main routine belowmust
work correctly.
void findDisorder(int arr[], int n, int* p)
{
for (int k = 1; k < n; k++)
{
if (arr[k] < arr[k-1])
{
p = arr + k;
return;
}
}
p = nullptr;
}
int main()
{
int nums[6] = { 10, 20, 20, 40, 30, 50 };
int* ptr;
findDisorder(nums, 6, ptr);
if (ptr == nullptr)
cout << \"The array is ordered\" << endl;
else {
cout << \"The disorder is at address \" << ptr
<< endl;
cout << \"It's at index \" << ptr - nums <cout << \"The item's value is \" << *ptr <}
return 0;
}
