I'm a bit stuck on a script I am trying to fix. The objective is to find the largest element out of unspecified number range. Currently I have the range set to 10 thru 100, and I want to use 10 in my array size.
I check some of the other scripting for this, but none of it made any sense to me as to how I can get this. Here is what I have so far.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
print "\n";
print "How big is the array: ";
chomp (my $n =<STDIN>);
print "\n";
print "The array contains: ";
print "\n";
my @array;
for (my $index=0; $index < $n; $index ++) {
push @array, int (rand(91))+10;
}
foreach (@array) {
print $_, "\t";
}
print "\n\n";
print "How many elements per line: 4\n";
print "The array contains: ";
print "\n";
my $counter = 0;
foreach (@array) {
print $_, "\t";
$counter ++;
if ($counter % 4 == 0) {
print "\n";
}
}
print "\n\n";
print "The largest element is: ";
