How easy is this program?

[J2S]

I'm trying to make one that has the user enter a series of numbers and the program will find the largest number once the user exits. It's kind of hard though. Someone help.

Well you get a number see if it is greater than the largest. If it is it becomes the largest. Repeat.

[J2S]

code:

loop     exit when num = -999     get num     n := n + 1     if n > num then     end loop

[J2S]

I still don't understand it. Harhar

This is not a hard problem. If you want to keep track of the largest number what do you do? If you want to check if a number is greater than the largest number what do you do?

pseudo:

loop     get a number     exit if number = -1000000 (or whatever you want)     if the number is bigger than the previous number, it is now the largest number end loop output the largest number
