Minimum Number In An Array

Introduction
  • In this blog, I am going to explain how to find the minimum or smallest element present in an array.  
Software Requirements
  • Turbo C++ OR C. 
Programming
  1. #include < stdio.h > int main()  
  2. {  
  3.     int array[100], minimum, size, c, location = 1;  
  4.     printf("Enter the number of elements in array\n");  
  5.     scanf("%d", & size);  
  6.     printf("Enter %d integers\n", size);  
  7.     for (c = 0; c < size; c++) scanf("%d", & array[c]);  
  8.     minimum = array[0];  
  9.     for (c = 1; c < size; c++)  
  10.     {  
  11.         if (array[c] < minimum)  
  12.         {  
  13.             minimum = array[c];  
  14.             location = c + 1;  
  15.         }  
  16.     }  
  17.     printf("Minimum element is present at location %d and it's value is %d.\n", location, minimum);  
  18.     return 0;  
  19. }  
Explanation
  • In the programming, given above, I have clearly explained about the minimum element in an array.
