this is the program and the error is on void loop and this is the error exit status 1

It's much better to post the whole of the error message exactly as it appears on your screen, using copy-and-paste - the IDE provides a single control to help you with this.
It is important because the full error message contains important information.
Also, please remember to use code tags when posting code - you can go back to your post and edit them in.
I can see at least one potential scope issue (the pin definitions inside setup() ) that are likely to bite you on the derriere in future, and you have at least the start of two setup functions.
This is not an installation or troubleshooting issue.
Please explain what your code is supposed to do?
Please explain what your hardware is?
Did you write your code in stages?
Have you got separate bits of code that demonstrate each input and output separately works BEFORE putting it together, ONE bit of code at a time?
