A recursive function that returns the maximum among the first n elements of an array |Using C Language|

👨‍💻Write a recursive function that returns the maximum among the first n elements of an array.

CODE:

   

    //A recursive function that returns the maximum among the first n elements of an array.

    #include <stdio.h>

    int rec_for_max(int array[], int length);

    main()

    {

            int array[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}; /*Here, declared arrey elements at compile time */

        int length = (sizeof(array)) / (sizeof(array[0])); /* Here, find length of array by length = ( total array size ) / ( size of one element in the array )  */

        printf("=> Maximum among elements of an array is %d", rec_for_max(array, length));

    }

    int rec_for_max(int array[], int length)

    {

            int maximum;

        if (length == 1)

        {

                maximum = array[0];

            return maximum;

        }

        else

        {

                if (array[length] > rec_for_max(array, length - 1))

            {

                    return array[length];

            }

            else

            {

                    return rec_for_max(array, length - 1);

            }

        }

    }
