Write a Program to Find Maximum From Array using Recursion

// C Program to Find Maximum From Array using Recursion

#include <stdio.h>

int max(int A[], int start, int end)
{
	if(end - start == 1)
	{
		return A[start];
	}
	int temp = max(A, start + 1,end);


	if(A[start] > temp)
	{
		return A[start];
	}
	return temp;

}

int main()
{
	int A[] = {51, 19, 89, 17, 61};
	int start = 0;
	int end = sizeof(A) / sizeof(A[0]);

	printf("Array :--> ");
	for(int i = 0; i < end; i++)
        printf("%d  ", A[i]);

	printf("\nMaximum in Array :--> %d", max(A, start, end));
	return 0;
}

Output:

Array :--> 51  19  89  17  61
Maximum in Array :--> 89
