find the largest number in an array code example

Example 1: Write a function that returns the largest element in a list

def return_largest_element(array):
    largest = 0
    for x in range(0, len(array)):
        if(array[x] > largest):
            largest = array[x]
    return largest

Example 2: find maximum number in array

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    int i, n;
    float arr[100];
    printf("Enter the number of elements (1 to 100): ");
    scanf("%d", &n);

    for (i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
        printf("Enter number%d: ", i + 1);
        scanf("%f", &arr[i]);
    }

    // storing the largest number to arr[0]
    for (i = 1; i < n; ++i) {
        if (arr[0] < arr[i])
            arr[0] = arr[i];
    }

    printf("Largest element = %.2f", arr[0]);

    return 0;
}

Example 3: max element in array

int max;
max=INT_MIN;

for(int i=0;i<ar.length();i++){
	if(ar[i]>max){
    	max=ar[i];
    }

Example 4: maximum number from Array

---without sort method---
public static int maxValue( int[]  n ) {

int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE;

for(int each: n)

if(each > max)

max = each;

 
return max;
  
---with sort method---
public static int maxValue( int[]  n ) {

Arrays.sort( n );

return  n [ n.lenth-1 ];

}

Example 5: javascript hwo to return largest value with index

var a = [0, 21, 22, 7];
var indexOfMaxValue = a.reduce((iMax, x, i, arr) => x > arr[iMax] ? i : iMax, 0);

document.write("indexOfMaxValue = " + indexOfMaxValue); // prints "indexOfMaxValue = 2"
