C Exercises: Accepts some integers from the user and find the highest value and the input position

C Basic Declarations and Expressions: Exercise-33 with Solution

Write a C program that accepts some integers from the user and finds the highest value and the input position.

Pictorial Presentation:

C Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 5
int main() 
{
    int number[MAX], i, j, max=0, num_pos=0; // Declare an array to store 5 numbers, and variables for loop counters and maximum value
    printf("Input 5 integers: \n");

    for(i = 0; i < MAX; i++) {
        scanf(" %d", &number[i]); // Read 5 integers from the user
    }
    
    for(j = 0; j < MAX; j++) 
    {
        if(number[j] > max) { // Check if current number is greater than current maximum
            max = number[j]; // Update maximum if needed
            num_pos = j; // Record the position of maximum
        }
    }

    printf("Highest value: %d\nPosition: %d\n", max, num_pos+1); // Print the maximum value and its position
    return 0;
}

Sample Output:

Input 5 integers:                                                                                    
5                                                                                                    
7                                                                                                    
15                                                                                                   
23                                                                                                   
45                                                                                                   
Highest value: 45                                                                                    
Position: 5
