Question

Create a C# program using WINDOWS FORM App in Visual Studio. THE ANSWER MUST BE IN C#, IN WINDOW FORM APP, IN VISUAL STUDIOS. Write the code to:

Write a method called MaximumDiffrence that accepts an integer array as a parameter and return the maximum difference between adjacent values in the array, where the gap is defined as the absolute value of the difference between the 2 adjacent values.

Example: if the array contains {5, 7, 4, 9, 6, 12, 8} so

The first gap is (5,7)=-2 and the absolute value is 2

The second gap is (7,4)=3

Third gap is (4,9) = -5 its absolute value is 5

Fourth gap is (9,6) = 3

Fifth gap is (6,12) = 6

Sixth gap is (12, 8) = 4

The method should return 6, the max absolute difference

If the array has just 2 or less elements, then it should return 0

Answer 1

On form button click event you can write the below code , assuming that the input is from a text box of integers separated with semi column (ex : 1;2;3;4)

private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, Eventargs e)

{

string a = txtArray.Text;
       int result = 0;
       char[] delimiter1 = new char[] {';'};
       string[] array1 = a.Split(delimiter1, StringSplitOptions.None);
       int[] b = new int[array1.Length];
       for(int i = 0 ; i < array1.Length ; i++)
       {
           b[i] = Convert.ToInt32(array1[i]);
       }
       if(b.Length > 2)
       {
           for(int i = 0 ; i < b.Length-1 ; i++)
           {
               int result1 = Math.Abs(b[i]-b[i+1]);
               result = (result > result1 ? result : result1);
           }
           MessageBox.Show(result);
       }
       else
       {
           MessageBox.Show("0");
       }

}
