How to calculate difference between minimum and maximum numbers in array in Golang 1.20
0In this video we are going to generate source code for the GoLang Program, How to calculate difference between minimum and maximum numbers in array using chatGPT.
After generating we will verify and run the generated code.
IMPORTANT NOTE on SOURCE CODE: only source code that are acceptable by the youtube description box will be displayed.
In this program I have replaced the angled brackets with > or <. once you copy the source code to editor replace it with greater than or less than symbols respectively.
##############SOURCE CODE#########################
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
// Define an array of integers
arr := []int{2, 7, 3, 8, 5}
// Initialize variables for minimum and maximum values
min := arr[0]
max := arr[0]
// Iterate over each element in the array
for _, num := range arr {
// Update minimum and maximum values if necessary
if num < min {
min = num
}
if num > max {
max = num
}
}
// Calculate the difference between the minimum and maximum values
diff := max - min
// Print the difference
fmt.Printf("The difference between the minimum and maximum values is %d.\n", diff)
}
##############END OF SOURCE CODE#########################
Below is the explanation for the program:
In this program, we define an array of integers and initialize variables min and max to the first element of the array.
We then use a for loop to iterate over each element in the array.
For each element, we compare it to the current values of min and max. If the element is smaller than min, we update min to the element.
If the element is greater than max, we update max to the element.
After iterating over all elements in the array, we calculate the difference between min and max, and store it in the diff variable.
Finally, we print the difference between the minimum and maximum values using the fmt.Printf function and the %d verb to print an integer.
