Hi all,
I'm a bit behind on my homework here. For lab 1036, I have a few
questions:
1. First, for this piece of code below to find the max number, can
somebody explain to me what these two lines mean ( if((counter == 0)||
(num[counter] > max))
max = num[counter]; )
and how do we modify it to get the minimum instead of the max ?
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class GreatestNumber {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] num = new int[10];
int counter;
int max = 0;
int totalnumber = 3;
// Prompt a user to enter numbers
for(counter = 0; counter < totalnumber; counter++){
num[counter] = Integer.parseInt
(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter numbers until
" + totalnumber + " numbers are entered"));
// Compute the greatest number up to this point
if((counter == 0)||(num[counter] > max))
max = num[counter];
}
// Display the greatest number.
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"The number with the
greatest value is " + max);
}
}
