Highest Int Value

Dear Developers,
Lets say we have many values:
int value1;
int value2;
.... [A year later] ....
int value100;
And i want to see which value is the highest.
int value1 = 5;
int value2 = 10; [Highest Value]
int value100 = 3;
Is there any easy way to do that?
Also, if we have 2+ same high values? Can i use Random to select one of all of those same values?

 

I... what? So you have a massive amount of independently declared 32-bit int fields. My first question is: why not use an int array (int[])? It's cleaner and doesn't require a dissertation of variable fields. Second: do I smell CS homework?

The easiest to do this would be to have an int array and a int that stores the highest value found. Upon iteration through the array, check if the array index value is higher than the int with the highest found value. If so, update the highest value and continue on. If not, still just continue on.

 

First: Can you please give me an example with the arraylist, Second: What is CS homework?

EDIT: I found a faster solution for me, Math.max function.

 

For the sake of the question: 2,147,483,647

 

I know that the max int that you can have is 2.147.483.647 dude
But i can get the max number out of many integers this way
Math.max(int1,int2)
And if there ar emore than 2 ints->
Math.max(int1,Math.max(int2,int3))

 

vasil7112 You are from Europe?

 

vasil7112 Iterating over each int in an array and storing a value called "int highest", every iteration you change highest to Math.max(int1, highest).

 

foodyling Im almost positive that the thing you just said was not in english. The only thing I undertood abut that is change.

 

JPG2000 I understood it.

 

You can do the max check yourself if you want to, since you're iterating over the entire thing anyways.

Code:java

ArrayList<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<Integer();
numbers.add(8);
numbers.add(10);
numbers.add(12315436);
numbers.add(-45);
 
int maxValue = Interger.MIN_VALUE; // Start off at the smallest value possible. Can only go up from here!
 
for(Integer i : numbers)
{
      if(i > maxValue)
            maxValue = i;
}
 
Bukkit.getLogger().Log(Level.Info, "Max value: " + maxValue);

 

Thanks alot sir
