Example: FindLargestAndSmallestUsingSorting in Java

// FindLargestAndSmallestUsingSorting
import java.util.Arrays; // Required for Arrays.sort()
import java.util.Scanner;

// Main class containing the entry point of the program
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[] numbers = {12, 5, 8, 20, 3, 15}; // Example array

        // Step 1: Print the original array
        System.out.println("Original array elements: " + Arrays.toString(numbers));

        // Step 2: Sort the array in ascending order
        Arrays.sort(numbers);

        // Step 3: The smallest element is at index 0
        int min = numbers[0];

        // Step 4: The largest element is at the last index
        int max = numbers[numbers.length - 1];

        // Step 5: Print the results
        System.out.println("Sorted array elements: " + Arrays.toString(numbers));
        System.out.println("Largest element: " + max);
        System.out.println("Smallest element: " + min);
    }
