I'm trying to help a friend but i have no idea how to program... This is the question and i need a program quick...please help..
write a code to determine and display the smallest and largest values contained in a 99 element floating point array named w
I just posted this in C programming... but realized its C++...
Well, you just need a for loop to iterate over every element in the array. Then for each element, see if it's smaller than the previously smallest value: if it is, set the smallest to the current element. Do the same thing for the largest element. (You can do it with only one for loop.)

It would be better if your friend actually joined and posted, so we don't have to suffer all the inaccuracies of translation you're going to introduce.
If I want to talk to my doctor, I don't need a brick-layer to do the translation for me.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
sorry...i have no idea what you mean... I am by no means a programmer. I'm just trying to help a friend out.
I know its asking a lot.. but what i'm looking for is actual code.
We generally don't just give actual code here. We help people with their code. As a member for a year and a half with 36 posts I would expect you to have noticed that by now.
We have a homework policy. Your friend should register and post what he/she has tried.Originally Posted by viciousv322

Code which iterates over each element in the array w:
Then you just need an if statement or two.Code:for(int i = 0; i < sizeof(w)/sizeof(*w); i ++) { }
What have you done so far?

i took the c++ programming class 2 semesters ago... so i don't remember much...
This is going to be a long discussion then....
Explaining it to you in even more detail than it would take to explain it to your friend directly is just a waste of everyones time.
