Question

Write and application that reads five integers from the user and determines and prints the largest and the smallest integers. Use only the programming techniques your learned in this chapter (use only if statements) 1.2. Modify your first program to add 2 more functions, the first function should determines the largest number and the second smallest. Both new functions must get invoked from the main function.

Answer 1

Answer:

#include <stdio.h>  

#include <limits.h>  

 

/* Define the number of times you are going  

  to ask the user for input. This allows you  

  to customize the program later and avoids the  

  hard coding of values in your code */  

#define NUMVALS 5  

 

int main(void)  

{  

   int i = 0;  

   int curval = 0;  

   /* Set your initial max as low as possible */  

   int maxval = INT_MIN;  

   /* Set your initial min as high as possible */  

   int minval = INT_MAX;  

 

   /* Loop through and ask the user for the defined  

      number of values */  

   for (i = 0; i < NUMVALS; i++)  

   {  

       /* Ask the user for the next value */  

       printf("Enter the next value: ");  

 

       /* Get the next value from the user */  

       scanf("%d", &curval);  

 

       /* Check to see if this is our biggest or  

          smallest value yet */  

       if (curval > maxval)maxval = curval;  

       if (curval < minval)minval = curval;  

   }  

 

   /* Output the results */  

   printf("The smallest value entered was: %d \n", minval);  

   printf("The largest value entered was: %d \n", maxval);  

 

   /* End the program */  

   return 0;  

}
