Well that would be the code that you have written that performs a bubble sort.

i've not written its code.and askin' about its code

What about its code? There is not a single line of code in your blatant request for someone to do your research for you.

'Bubble sort' is an algorithm for sorting data. You may find (many) details in the dedicated Wikipedia page[^].
It is easy to implement but very inefficient.
The 'code of bubble sorting' is the code you have to write, in your favourite programming language, in order to transform such an algorithm in an application (or a library function). Since the linked Wikipedia's page provides pseudo-code, your task is really easy.

You are welcome.

A Google Search with keywords bubble sort source code returns links to several web sites that show the Bubble Sort source code. Below are just three of them.

Note that a Bubble Sort performs less than optimally. A better sort algorithm is Shell Sort. Many years ago, I did some testing and found that for any more than 12 items, bubble sort performed worse than Shell Sort. It may be different today but bubble sort would not be my choice for a sort algorithm.

C program for bubble sort [^]

Java program to bubble sort[^]

Wikipedia article: Bubble Sort including source code[^]

"It may be different today"
Why?

I don't know if it is different or not because I have not tested it. I am sure, though, that in most cases Shell Sort is better than Bubble Sort.

If you perform the same test then you get the same results.
By the way, on relatively large data, the shell sort is superior to the bubble sort (actually the bubble sort is the worst sorting algorithm) there is a lot of literature about, see, for instance, the oldie-goldie Wirth's "Algorithms + data structures = programs".
#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int n, i, j, a[5], b, temp;
    printf("Enter the number of elements to be sorted\n");
    scanf("%d", &n);
    for(i = 0; i < n; ++i)
    {
        printf("%d - Enter the elements - ", i);
        scanf("%d", &a[i]);
    }
    for(i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        for(j = 0; j < n-1; j++)
        {
            if(a[j] > a[j+1])
            {
                temp = a[j];
                a[j] = a[j+1];
                a[j+1] = temp;
            }
        }
    }
    for (i = 0; i < n; ++i)
    {
        printf("%d\n", a[i]);
    }
    return 0;
}
