Program to find the maximum and minimum element in an array by using pointer

 Program to find the maximum and minimum element in an array by using pointer:-


Code:-

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int findmin(int n,int *a)
{
int i,min;
min= *(a+1);
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
if (min>*(a+i))
min= *(a+i);
}
return min;
}
int findmax(int n,int *a)
{
int i,max;
max=*(a+1);
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
if(max<*(a+i))
max=*(a+i);
}
return max;
}
int main()
{
int n,*a,i,min,max;
printf("Enter the size of array ");
scanf("%d",&n);
a=(int*)malloc(n* sizeof(int));
printf("Enter the elements ");
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
scanf("%d",a+i);
}
min=findmin(n,a);
max=findmax(n,a);
printf("Minimum element in the array is %d\n",min);
printf("maximum element in the array is %d",max);
return 0;
}

Output:--

Enter the size of array 8
Enter the elements 30 45 76 29 56 23 90 65
Minimum element in the array is 23
Maximum element in the array is 90
