In this tutorial you will learn about the C Program to Find Largest Number in an Array and its application with practical example.
C Program to Find The Largest Number in an Array
In this tutorial, we will learn to create a C program that will Find the Largest Number in an Array using C programming.
Prerequisites
Before starting with this tutorial, we assume that you are the best aware of the following C programming topics:
- Operators in C Programming.
- Basic Input and Output function in C Programming.
- Basic C programming.
- For loop in C programming.
- Arithmetic operations in C Programming.
- Conditional Statements in the C Programming.
Find the Largest Number in an Array.
In this program, First, we will first take the size of the array from the user. Then we will take the elements of the array from the user. After that, we will compare every element of the array and Find the largest Number in that Array. Then we will print the largest element of the array to the user.
With the help of this program, we can be Find the Largest Number in an Array.
Program Code:-
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 |
// C Program to Find The Largest Number in an Array #include <stdio.h> int main() { //declaring the required variables for the program int n; double arr[100]; //i = it will hold the integer value for the loop //n = it will hold the integer value for the input size of array //arr[] = it will hold the integer value for the array. //Taking the input size of the array from the user. printf("Enter the number of elements (1 to 100): "); scanf("%d", &n); //Taking the input elements of the array. for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) { printf("Enter number %d: ", i + 1); scanf("%lf", &arr[i]); } // storing the largest number to arr[0] for (int i = 1; i < n; ++i) { if (arr[0] < arr[i]) { arr[0] = arr[i]; } } //Printing The largest element printf("Largest element = %.2lf", arr[0]); return 0; } |
Output:-
In the above program, we have first initialized the required variable.
- n = it will hold the integer value.
- i = it will hold the integer value.
- arr[100] = it will hold the integer value.
Taking the size of the array and the elements.
