What is the best way to get the minimum or maximum value from an Array of numbers?

Question

Let\'s say I have an Array of numbers: [2,3,3,4,2,2,5,6,7,2]

What is the best way to find the minimum or maximum value in that Array?

Right now,

Answer 1

If you want to find both the min and max at the same time, the loop can be modified as follows:

int min = int.maxValue;
int max = int.minValue;

foreach num in someArray {
  if(num < min)
    min = num;
  if(num > max)
    max = num;
}

This should get achieve O(n) timing.
