use integers not doubles- saves on data entry time when testing.
(Find the smallest element) Write a method that finds the smallest element in an array of double
values using the following header: public static double min(double[] array) Write a test program
that prompts the user to enter ten numbers, invokes this method to return the minimum value,
and displays the minimum value. Here is a sample run of the program:
Solution
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
class Codechef
{
public static double min(double[] array){ // function to find the minimum
double min = array[0]; // assigning 1st element as min
for(int i=1;i<10;i++){ // looping through the elements of the array
if(min > array[i]) // condition check for current min
min = array[i];
}
return min; // return min value
}
public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception // main function for testing the
min function
{
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter ten numbers: ");
double[] array = new double[10];
for(int i=0;i<10;i++){ // for loop for inputting 10 elements
double temp = input.nextDouble(); // getting double values from the user
array[i] = temp;
}
System.out.println("The minimum number is: "+min(array)); // invoking the min function and
printing

}
}
