oddSpaced

Question :

An integer array is said to be oddSpaced, if the difference between the largest value and the smallest value is an odd number. Write a function isOddSpaced(int[] a) that will return 1 if it isoddSpaced and 0 otherwise. If array has less than two elements, function will return 0. If you are programming in C or C++, the function signature is:

   int isOddSpaced (int a[ ], int len) where len is the number of elements in the array.

                

Examples

Array	Largest value	Smallest value	Difference	Return value
{100, 19, 131, 140}	140	19	140 -19 = 121	1
{200, 1, 151, 160}	200	1	200 -1 = 199	1
{200, 10, 151, 160}	200	10	200 -10 = 190	0
{100, 19, -131, -140}	100	-140	100 - (-140 ) = 240	0
{80, -56, 11, -81}	80	-81	-80 - 80 = -161	1

Solution:

public  int isOddSpaced(int[] a)

        {

            int maxNumber = a[0], minNumber = a[0], rtnVal = 0;

            if (a.Length < 2)

            {

                rtnVal = 0;

            }

            else

            {   

                for (int i = 0; i < a.Length; i++)

                {

                    if (maxNumber < a[i])

                    {

                        maxNumber = a[i];

                    }

                }

                for (int i = 0; i < a.Length; i++)

                {

                    if (minNumber > a[i])

                    {

                        minNumber = a[i];

                    }

                }

                if((maxNumber-minNumber)%2!=0)

                {

                    rtnVal = 1;

                }

            }

            return rtnVal;

        }
