Reference
Arrays must be declared before use;
Only can make reference to each elements one by one;
Array element,as a[i] ( i,0~N-1)
as int i=15;
int data[i]; //?the expression can not be variable
as int data[5];
data[5]=10; //
as int a[10];
printf(“%d”,a); (?)
=> for(j=0; j<10; j++)
printf(“%d\t”,a[j]); (?)
The C Programming Language Chapter 7 Arrays
Initialization
Specifications:
Without initialization,array elements are random numbers.
If an array is declared without a size and is initialized to a
series of values,it is implicitly given the size of the number
of initializers,
as int a[5]={6,2,3};
=> a[0]=6; a[1]=2;a[2]=3; a[3]=0; a[4]=0;
as int a[3]={6,2,3,5,1}; (?)
When a list of initializers is shorter than the number of array
elements,the remaining elements are initialized to zero.
as int a[]={1,2,3,4,5,6};
// the size of the array is 6
as int a[5] ={1,2,3,4,5};
=>a[0]=1; a[1]=2; a[2]=3; a[3]=4; a[4]=5;

STEPS:
1,Input,use for to read 10 integers;
2,Process,
(a) let max=min= x[0]
(b) Compare x[i] with max,min (loops)
if max<x[i],let max=x[i]

3,Output,max min
#include <stdio.h>
#define SIZE 10
main()

printf("Enter 10 integers:\n");
for(i=0;i<SIZE;i++)

}
