Find biggest and smallest number and positions in array


Write a C Program To find biggest and smallest number and positions in the given array. Here’s simple Program To find biggest and smallest number and positions in the given array in C Programming Language.


What is an Array ?


Arrays a kind of data structure that can store a fixed-size sequential collection of elements of the same type. An array is used to store a collection of data, but it is often more useful to think of an array as a collection of variables of the same type.

Instead of declaring individual variables, such as number0, number1, …, and number99, you declare one array variable such as numbers and use numbers[0], numbers[1], and …, numbers[99] to represent individual variables. A specific element in an array is accessed by an index.

All arrays consist of contiguous memory locations. The lowest address corresponds to the first element and the highest address to the last element.


Here is source code of the C Program To find biggest and smallest number and positions in the given array. The C program is successfully compiled and run(on Codeblocks) on a Windows system. The program output is also shown in below.


SOURCE CODE : :


/*  C Program To find biggest and smallest number and positions in array  */

#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{

    int A[25], max, min, maxpos, minpos, n, i;

    printf("ENTER THE SIZE OF THE ARRAY :: ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
    printf("\nENTER %d ELEMENTS OF THE ARRAY :: \n",n);
    for(i=1; i<=n; i++)
    {
     printf("\nENTER %d ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: ",i);
     scanf("%d", &A[i]);
    }
    max = A[1];
    maxpos = 1;
    for(i=1; i<=n; i++)
    {
    if(max<A[i])
    {
    max = A[i];
    maxpos = i;
    }
    }
    min = A[1];
    minpos = 1;
    for(i=1; i<=n; i++)
    {
    if(min>A[i])
    {
    min = A[i];
    minpos = i;
    }
    }
    printf("\nTHE LARGEST ELEMENT IS :: %d ", max);
    printf(" AND ITS POSITION IS : %d \n", maxpos);
    printf("\nTHE SMALlEST ELEMENT IS :: %d ", min);
    printf(" AND ITS POSITION IS :: %d \n", minpos);
    return 0;
}

OUTPUT : :


ENTER THE SIZE OF THE ARRAY :: 7

ENTER 7 ELEMENTS OF THE ARRAY ::

ENTER 1 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 3

ENTER 2 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 5

ENTER 3 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 1

ENTER 4 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 6

ENTER 5 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 8

ENTER 6 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 0

ENTER 7 ELEMENT OF THE ARRAY :: 9

THE LARGEST ELEMENT IS :: 9  AND ITS POSITION IS : 7

THE SMALlEST ELEMENT IS :: 0  AND ITS POSITION IS :: 6
