Example: merge sort java

public static void mergeSort(int[] a, int n) {
    if (n < 2) {
        return;
    }
    int mid = n / 2;
    int[] l = new int[mid];

    for (int i = 0; i < mid; i++) {
        l[i] = a[i];
    }
    for (int i = mid; i < n; i++) {
        r[i - mid] = a[i];
    }
    mergeSort(l, mid);
    mergeSort(r, n - mid);
 
    merge(a, l, r, mid, n - mid);
}

public static void merge(

    int i = 0, j = 0, k = 0;
    while (i < left && j < right) {
