Answer 3

#include <stdio.h>
int sumofarray(int a[],int n)
{
int min,max,i;
min=max=a[0];
    for(i=1; i<n; i++)
    {
         if(min>a[i])
  min=a[i];  
   if(max<a[i])
    max=a[i];      
    }

    printf("minimum of array is : %d",min);
    printf("\nmaximum of array is : %d",max);
}
int main()
{
    int a[1000],i,n,sum;

    printf("Enter size of the array : ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
    printf("Enter elements in array : ");
    for(i=0; i<n; i++)
    {
        scanf("%d",&a[i]);
    }
    sumofarray(a,n);
}

Answer 4

Thanks but i wanted to pass the array to a function, that will find the smallest

Answer 5

I really don't understand cause i did it a way and its giving me the wrong answer

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <conio.h>
int minimum(int proof_array[], int n );

FILE *fp;
int i, n, choice, integers[10], proof_array[10];
int  minimum;
char ch;
while (1)
{
//part A

    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
scanf("%d",&integers[i]);
}
for(i=0;i<10;i++){

}
    fclose(fp);
    //reread
   fp=fopen("array_values.txt", "r");
    if(fp==NULL)

    exit(1);
}
printf("The contents of file are:\n", integers);
   while((ch = fgetc(fp)) != EOF)
      printf("%c", ch);
   fclose(fp);
// store to another array
if (fp = fopen("array_values.txt", "r")) {
        while (fscanf(fp, "%d", &proof_array[i]) != EOF) {

        fclose(fp);
    }
    //for (--i; i >= 10; --i)
