How to find the largest and smallest number from a given Array using Java?

Find the largest and smallest number from a given array.

This java example shows how to find the largest and smallest number in an array.

        public class FindLargestSmallestNumber {
    
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                  
                    //array of 10 numbers
                    int numbers[] = new int[]{32,43,53,54,32,65,63,98,43,23};
                  
                    //assign first element of an array to largest and smallest
                    int smallest = numbers[0];
                    int largetst = numbers[0];
                  
                    for(int i=1; i< numbers.length; i++)
                    {
                            if(numbers[i] > largetst)
                                    largetst = numbers[i];
                            else if (numbers[i] < smallest)
                                    smallest = numbers[i];
                          
                    }
                  
                    System.out.println("Largest Number is : " + largetst);
                    System.out.println("Smallest Number is : " + smallest);
            }
    }
