program in C to get the largest element of an array
Problem Statement:
Write a program in C to get the largest element of an array using the function.
Test Cases:
Input the number of elements to be stored in the array :10
Input 10 elements in the array :
element – 0 : 1
element – 1 : 2
element – 2 : 3
element – 3 : 4
element – 4 : 5
element – 5 : 6
element – 6 : 7
element – 7 : 8
element – 8 : 9
element – 9 : 10
Expected Output :
The largest element in the array is : 10
C Program:
#include<stdio.h>
#define MAX 100
int findMaxElem(int []);
int n;
int main()
{
int arr1[MAX],mxelem,i;
printf(“\n\n Function : get largest element of an array :\n”);
printf(“————————————————-\n”);
printf(” Input the number of elements to be stored in the array :”);
scanf(“%d”,&n);
printf(” Input %d elements in the array :\n”,n);
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
printf(” element – %d : “,i);
scanf(“%d”,&arr1[i]);
}
mxelem=findMaxElem(arr1);
printf(” The largest element in the array is : %d\n\n”,mxelem);
return 0;
}
int findMaxElem(int arr1[])
{
int i=1,mxelem;
mxelem=arr1[0];
while(i < n)
{
if(mxelem<arr1[i])
mxelem=arr1[i];
i++;
}
return mxelem;
}
