#include

int main()
{
int array[100], maximum, size, c, location = 1;

printf("Enter the number of elements in array\n");
scanf("%d", &size);

printf("Enter %d integers\n", size);

for (c = 0; c < size; c++)
scanf("%d", &array[c]);

maximum = array[0];

for (c = 1; c < size; c++)
{
if (array[c] > maximum)
{
maximum = array[c];
location = c+1;
}
}

printf("Maximum element is present at location %d and it's value is %d.\n", location, maximum);
return 0;
}



OUTPUT -:

Enter the number of an elements in array
5
Enter 5 integers
4
5
6
8
2

Answer 2

Answer:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

long array[100], *maximum, size, c, location = 1;

printf("Enter the number of elements in array\n");

scanf("%ld", &size);

printf("Enter %ld integers\n", size);

for ( c = 0 ; c < size ; c++ )

scanf("%ld", &array[c]);

maximum = array;

*maximum = *array;

for (c = 1; c < size; c++)

{

if (*(array+c) > *maximum)

{

*maximum = *(array+c);

location = c+1;

}

}

printf("Maximum element is present at location number %ld and it's value is %ld.\n", location, *maximum);

return 0;

Explanation:

You forget to put * sign in ptr maximum!

now this is the complete right answer!
