Question
Write an algorithm for a program that accepts a set of numbers
and finds the smallest among them and computes the sum of
the numbers accepted. The program stops when the user
enters number 999. Convert the algorithm into flowchart

as the numbers are accepted, keep track of the smallest. That way there is no need to do a sort later on.
read least
sum=least
val=least
WHILE val ne 999 DO
read val
sum += val
least = val if val < least
DONE
print least,sum
Of course, an array must be used if the list of numbers needs to be retained for some reason.

rats. The above loop will include the terminating 999 in the sum. It is a simple change to stop before including it.

Design an algorithm that keeps reading positive numbers until the user enters a zero value, and determines and outputs the largest number
