Thread: 2-D array question

I have written a program that reads in data from a file into a 5X6 array and then find the minimum and maximum values in the array. I also need to determine which row the minimum and maximum values are in. For example(3X3 array):

Row
1 2.1 4.5 2.3
2 1.1 0.5 5.0
3 2.4 4.4 6.4

0.5 is the smallest value and 6.4 is the largest value and the output needs to look like this:

Minimum = 0.5 in row2
Maximum = 6.4 in row 3


My program can read in the data and find the max and min values I just don't know how to have it read which row those values and could use some help on donig that.

thanks

Keep track of the row you find the largest value in, the same way you actually keep track of the largest value. Simply make a variable and store the value of the row in it, updating it whenever you find a bigger value.

if statements bind to the nearest statement, unless enclosed in blocks. This:

Code:

if( x == y )
    printf("x == y");
    printf("\n...\n" );

is not the same as:

Code:

if( x == y )
{
    printf("x == y" );
    printf("\n...\n" );
}
