Python program to find the largest and smallest element in a list

This is a Python program which finds out the smallest and largest element in the list.Here we use 2 functions min() and max() to check for the smallest and largest element respectively.

PROGRAM :

lst = []
num = int(input('How many numbers: '))

for n in range(num):
    numbers = int(input('Enter number '))
    lst.append(numbers)

print("Maximum element in the list is :", max(lst), "\nMinumim element in the list is :", min(lst))

OUTPUT : 

Python - Largest and Smallest element in a list

Java Program to find the Largest Element in an Array

This is a Java Program which finds the largest element in an array.

Here initially first element in array and  its next element are compared array[0] and array[1] , if array[1] is greater then the value is stored in array[0] and now the second element is increased 2 .3 4 .. until the last element is reached.

PROGRAM :

package codingcorner.in;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class LargestElementArray {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  int i, n;
  System.out.print("How many numbers ?\t");
  Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
  n = scan.nextInt();
  int array[] = new int[n];
  for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
   System.out.print("\nEnter number " + (i + 1));
   array[i] = scan.nextInt();
  }
  scan.close();
  for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
   if (array[0] < array[i])
    array[0] = array[i];
  }
  System.out.print("\nThe largest among the" + n + " numbers is "
    + array[0]);
 }
}

OUTPUT :
