Finding the index number of the lowest value in an array

Question

I have to return the index number of the lowest value in an array of 12 numbers. I keep getting 12 as the result every time I run it. Here is my code:

minRain =          


        

Answer 1

What is the meaning of this statement?

int lowest = (int) mon4[0];

You are saving the first value of the array as the lowest one and then later comparing with array values. You are actually comparing index with array values.

if (mon4[index]

You should do something like this.

 if (mon4[index]
