Array operations:

Finding max element from an array:


#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a[10],temp,max=0,i;
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
scanf("%d",&a[i]); //inputted an array
}
max=a[0]; //max is assigned the first value of array a
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
if(a[i]>a[i+1]) //Comparing a[0]with a[1] if greater
then interchanging values
{
temp=max;
max=a[i];
a[i]=a[i+1];//values swapped
}
}
//printed the value of max number in an array
printf("The maximum number from entered array is:
%d \n",max);

return 0;
}
Minimum will be vice versa of it.
Sorting an array in ascending order:
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a[10],j,temp,i,n;
printf("enter nmber of elements:");
scanf("%d",&n);
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
scanf("%d",&a[i]); //inputted an array
}

for(i=1;i<=n-1;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<n-1;j++)
{
if(a[j]>a[j+1]) //Comparing a[0]with a[1] if
greater then interchanging values
{
temp=a[j];
a[j]=a[j+1];
a[j+1]=temp;//values swapped
}
}
}
printf("sorted array:\n");
for(i=0;i<+n;i++)
{
printf("%d \n",a[i]);
}
return 0;
}
For example:
Elements are 23,12,29,5
It wil give output like
5
12
23
29
In descending order we just need to make change in
comparison condition
Like:
for(j=0;j<n-1;j++)
{
if(a[j]<a[j+1]) //Comparing a[0]with a[1] if
smaller then interchanging values
{
temp=a[j];
a[j]=a[j+1];
a[j+1]=temp;//values swapped
}
}
}
Searching an element from array:
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int array[100], search, i, n;
printf("Enter the number of elements in array\n");
scanf("%d",&n);

printf("Enter %d integer(s)\n", n);

for (i = 0; i < n; i++)


scanf("%d", &array[i]);

printf("Enter the number to search\n");//asking user to


eneter the number to be searched
scanf("%d", &search);

for (i = 0; i < n; i++)


{
if (array[i] == search) /* if required element found */
{
printf("%d is present at location %d.\n", search, i+1);
break;
}
}
if (i == n)
printf("%d is not present in array.\n", search);
return 0;
}
