We’re trying to find out max and min element in an array using a for loop for traversal and comparing every element with current max and min variable values, which we initialized as: int largest = INT_MIN; int smallest = INT_MAX;
using header file.
MY QUESTION is: If we simply initialize them as
int largest = arr[0];
int smallest = arr[0];
would that be ok? Or would we miss some corner cases if we do it this way?
Thanks!
Arrays - Largest & Smallest Number
Yes, This is Okay
because smallest and largest element will be definitely from array .
