Answer 1

#include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

int a[20],min,max;

int n;

printf("\nEnter the num of elements: ");

scanf("%d",&n);

printf("Enter the elements\n");

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

{

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

if(i==0)

{

min=max=a[i];

}

if(a[i]<min)

min=a[i];

else if(a[i]>max)

max=a[i];

}

printf("The largest element is %d. The smallest element is %d.", max, min);

}
