The return value is a one-dimensional array that contains two elements. These two elements indicate the rows and column indices of the largest element in the two-dimensional array. Write a test program that prompts the user to enter a two-dimensional array and displays the location of the largest element in the array.

In Java:

import java.util.Scanner;  

import java.util.Arrays;  

public class Main  {  

public static void main(String args[])  {  

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

int row, col;  

System.out.print("Rows: ");    row = input.nextInt();

System.out.print("Cols: ");     col = input.nextInt();  

int[][] Array2D = new int[row][col];

System.out.print("Enter array elements: ");

for(int i =0;i<row;i++){    

    for(int j =0;j<col;j++){

        Array2D[i][j] = input.nextInt();  

    }     }

int[] maxarray = findmax(Array2D,row,col);

System.out.println("Row: "+(maxarray[0]+1));

System.out.println("Column: "+(maxarray[1]+1));

}  

public static int[] findmax(int[][] Array2D,int row, int col)   {  

int max = Array2D[0][0];

int []maxitem = new int [2];

for(int i =0;i<row;i++){

    for(int j =0;j<col;j++){

        if(Array2D[i][j] > max){  

            maxitem[0] = i;

            maxitem[1] = j; }}    }

return maxitem;  

}  

}

Explanation:

The next two lines import the scanner and array libraries

import java.util.Scanner;  

import java.util.Arrays;  

The class of the program

public class Main  {  

The main method begins here

public static void main(String args[])  {  

The scanner function is called in the program

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

This declares the array row and column

int row, col;

This next instructions prompt the user for rows and get the row input  

System.out.print("Rows: ");    row = input.nextInt();

This next instructions prompt the user for columns and get the column input  

System.out.print("Cols: ");     col = input.nextInt();  

This declares the 2D array

int[][] Array2D = new int[row][col];

This prompts the user for array elements

System.out.print("Enter array elements: ");

The following iteration populates the 2D array

for(int i =0;i<row;i++){    

    for(int j =0;j<col;j++){

        Array2D[i][j] = input.nextInt();  

    }     }

This calls the findmax function. The returned array of the function is saved in maxarray  

int[] maxarray = findmax(Array2D,row,col);

This prints the row position

System.out.println("Row: "+(maxarray[0]+1));

This prints the column position

System.out.println("Column: "+(maxarray[1]+1));

The main method ends here

}  

The findmax function begins here

public static int[] findmax(int[][] Array2D,int row, int col)   {  

This initializes the maximum to the first element of the array

int max = Array2D[0][0];

This declares maxitem. The array gets the position of the maximum element

int []maxitem = new int [2];

The following iteration gets the position of the maximum element

for(int i =0;i<row;i++){

    for(int j =0;j<col;j++){

        if(Array2D[i][j] > max){  

            maxitem[0] = i; -- The row position is saved in index 0

            maxitem[1] = j;  -- The column position is saved in index 1}}    }

This returns the 1 d array

return maxitem;  

}
