Write a program to find the largest element in an array using Recursion in C. 1admin Staff answered 7 years ago
#include<stdio.h>
#define MAX 100

int getMaxElement(int []);
int size;

int main(){
int arr[MAX],max,i;
  printf("Enter the size of the array: ");
  scanf("%d",&size);
  printf("Enter %d elements of an array: ", size);

  for(i=0;i<size;i++)
  scanf("%d",&arr[i]);
  max=getMaxElement(arr);
  printf("Largest element of an array is: %d",max);
  return 0;
  }

  int getMaxElement(int arr[]){
  static int i=0,max =-9999;
  if(i < size){
  if(max<arr[i])
  max=arr[i];
  i++;
  getMaxElement(arr);
  }

  return max;
}

Sample output:
Enter the size of the array: 6
Enter 5 elements of an array: 2 8 10 9 6 1
Largest element of an array is: 10
