TASK 2: Finding the Maximum Element in an Array
public class MaxElementDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] numbers = {10, 30, 20, 50, 40};
System.out.print(“Element in the array: “ );
// Calling the method to find the maximum element
int max = findMaxElement(numbers);
System.out.println();
System.out.println(“Maximum element in the array: “ + max);
}
// Method to find the maximum element in an array
public static int findMaxElement(int[] arr) {
int max = arr[0];
for (int i = 1; i < arr.length; i++) {
System.out.print(arr[i] +” “);
if (arr[i] > max) {
max = arr[i];
}
}
return max;
}
}
Output:
Explanation:
• In this program, we define a method findMaxElement that takes an array of integers as a parameter and
returns the maximum element in the array.
• We declare an array numbers containing integers in the main method.
• We call the findMaxElement method and pass the numbers array as an argument.
