Here's what I have so far
double[] num = {1.9, 2.9, 3.4, 3.5};
double max = num [0];
for (int i = 1 ; i < num.length ; i++)
{
if (num [i] > max)
max = num [i];
}
System.out.println ("Max is " + max);
I need to find the index of the greatest value. I've tried printing the index by putting a sentence inside the if statement, and I've also tried by storing i into another variable. None of them worked.
You need to keep track of the max value and its index.
public class GetMaxIndex {
public static void main(final String[] args) {
final double[] numbers = { 1.9, 2.9, 3.4, 3.5 };
double maxNumber = numbers[0];
int maxIndex = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < numbers.length; i++) {
if (numbers[i] > maxNumber) {
maxNumber = numbers[i];
maxIndex = i;
}
}
System.out.println("Max is " + maxNumber);
System.out.println("Index of max is " + maxIndex);
}
}
maxNumer instead of maxNumber? Some secret sorcery you are not allowed to share with us mortals?double[] num = {1.9, 2.9, 3.4, 3.5};
double max = num[0];
int maxIndex = 0;
for (int i = 1 ; i < num.length ; i++)
{
if (num[i] > max)
{
maxIndex = i
max = num[i];
}
}
System.out.println("Max is " + max);
System.out.println("Max index is + maxIndex);
numand[i]? Perhaps that is causing it. Are you getting compilation errors or what?, and then in the loop instead ofmax = num[i]`, set the idx to to num[i]?max = num[0];takes care of that.
