Find the largest adjacent sum of two numbers in a given array.

Note: Hope it helps you! Please note that all the intentions are to clear the doubt of how to solve it in java. So, please try to give it a chance at least before using this. If you face any discrepancy please contact us. Thank you!

Description: 

Given an array of integers, find the pair of adjacent elements that has the largest sum and return that sum.

Example: 

For array = [2, 5, 4, -2, -5, 7, 3]

The output should be
adjacentElementsSum(array) = 10

as 7 and 3 produce the largest Sum.

Solution:

import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
/* Name of the class has to be "Main" only if the class is public. */
class AdjacentElementsSum
{
public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception{
AdjacentElementsSum q1 = new AdjacentElementsSum();
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = sc.nextInt();
int[] array = new int[n];
for(int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
    array[i] = sc.nextInt();
}
System.out.println("Largest adjacent sum is: ");
System.out.println(q1.adjacentElementsSum(array));
}
int adjacentElementsSum(int[] array){     
    int max_sum = array[0]+array[1];
    int n = array.length;     
    for(int i = 0; i < n-1; i++){         
        int temp = array[i]+array[i+1];
        if(temp > max_sum){
            max_sum = temp;
        }
    }
    return max_sum;
}
}

Output:

Output


Time Complexity = O(n)

Hope it helps!

C program to print all repeated elements in an array and also print the count of repeated numbers

  Write a program to print all repeated elements in an array and also print the count of repeated numbers Note: Hope it helps you! Please note that all the intentions are to clear the doubt of how to solve it in java. So, please try to give it a chance at least before using this. If you face any discrepancy please contact us. Thank you! Example: input: Enter the number of element: 4 Enter Elements: 10 20 10 20 output: The duplicate number is: 10 The duplicate number is: 20 The total number of the duplicate element is: 2 Algorithm of this program: Initially, we define the size of the array. Then, take a user-input size of the array and scan the element of the array. For finding the duplicate number in the array we have to run two for loops. The first for loop scan all elements from 0 index The next for loops run from i+1 so that it checks all the duplicate elements. If any duplicate element is found, we print the duplicate number and count it. At last, we print the count of ...
