Find the largest and smallest element in the array in c

C program to check the smallest and largest element in an array

Algorithm

Input: Input size of the array, elements of the array
output: Displays the largest and smallest element in an array

Start
Input the size of the array say n and enter the elements of the array a[n]
small = a [ 0 ], large = a [ 0 ] , i = 0
while ( i < n )
4.1 if ( small > a [ i ] )
4.1.1 small = a [ i ]
4.2 if ( large < a [ i ])
4.2.1 large = a [ i ]
4.3 i++
Print "The largest elements in the array is " large
Print "The smallest elements in the array is " small
Stop

C Program

# include <stdio.h>

int main()

{
//Enter the size and elements of the array
int n,small,large;
printf("Enter the size of the array: ");
scanf("%d", &n);
int a[n];
printf("Enter the elements one by one: \n");
for (int i =0; i < n; i++)
scanf("%d", &a[i]);
small = a[0];
large = a[0];
   for ( int i = 0; i < n; i++){
//checks for the smallest element in the array
  if (small > a[i])
small = a[i];
   //checks for the largest elements in the array
if (large < a[i])
large = a[i];
}
//prints the result
printf("The largest element in the array is %d\n", large);
printf("The smallest element in the array is %d\n", small);

return 0;
