Question

4. Write a program that finds the smallest element in a one-dimensional array containing 20 integer values in the range 0 to N

Hint: Consider following fragment of code

Program in C language:

for(c=0;c<size;c++)

{

    if(array[c] < minimum)

    {

        minimum = array[c];

        location = c;

    }

}

this c code is not running and missing some code . please add the missing code so when i paste it will run and provide flowchart

Answer 1

Program code to copy

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

int main()
{
//Variable declaration
int c, minimum, num, location, size = 20;
//declaration of array with size 20
int array[size];
  
printf("Enter 20 entegers\n");
//taking user input
for(c=0; c < size; ++c)
scanf("%d ", &array[c]);

//initiallsing minimum with first array element,
//in case array[c] < minimum for c = 0,1,3...19 is found
//minimum is updated as minimum = array[c].
minimum = array[0];
for(c=1; c<size; c++){
if(array[c] < minimum){
minimum = array[c];
location = c;
}
}

printf("\nMinimum elements in array is %d at index %d.", minimum, location);
  
return 0;
}
