Writing programs that solve the Programming Projects helps to solidify your under­standing of the material and demonstrates how the chapter’s concepts are applied. (As noted in the Introduction, qualified instructors may obtain completed solutions to the Programming Projects on the publisher’s Web site.)

Selection means finding the kth largest or kth smallest element from an array. For example, you might want to select the 7th largest element. Finding the median (as in Programming Project 7.2) is a special case of selection. The same partitioning process can be used, but you look for an element with a specified index number rather than the middle element. Modify the program from Programming Project 7.2 to allow the selection of an arbitrary element. How small an array can your program handle?
