    Default MinMax

    A tricky prob to tackle

    • Prompt user for integers using a loop
    • Stop prompting when a negative integer was entered
    • Print out the largest and smallest numbers entered so far
    • Print 0 as largest and smallest number when 1st number is -ve


    /*OUTPUT
    Enter number: 32
    Enter number: 23
    Enter number: 89
    Enter number: 2
    Enter number: -2
    Smallest number: 2
    Largest number: 89
    */

    This isn't a code service - no one is going to do this for you. Dumping homework such as this is unproductive at best. Make an attempt, and if you stumble along the way post a concise question along with code and any error messages.

    My program is unable to prompt me for the next number when I enter a positive integer. Therefore, my smallest and largest integer are both the same number

    Sounds like an error with whatever loop you're using. Your best bet is to paste your attempted code here so everybody can take a look and guide you through your problem. It's hard to help when we can't see what you're doing
