Finding the max/min value in an array of primitives using Java

Question

It\'s trivial to write a function to determine the min/max value in an array, such as:

/**
 * 
 * @param chars
 * @return the max value in the array of chars         


        

Answer 1

import java.util.Arrays;

public class apples {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    int a[] = {2,5,3,7,8};
    Arrays.sort(a);

     int min =a[0];
    System.out.println(min);
    int max= a[a.length-1];
    System.out.println(max);

  }
