Sorry that this is such a long block of code, but do you see any obvious syntax errors in this? I feel like the problem is that the code isn't printing correctly since the sort and swap methods were from my textbook. Please help if you can!

.text
swap: sll $t1, $a1, 2 #shift bits by 2

lw $t2, 4($t1) #load v[k+1] into t1
sw $t2, 0($t1) #swap addresses
sw $t0, 4($t1) #swap addresses
jr $ra #return
sort: addi $sp, $sp, -20 #make enough room on the stack for five registers
