Variadic Functions in C - Hacker Rank Solution

Hello coders, today we will be solving Variadic Functions in C Hacker Rank Solution.

Task

Variadic functions are functions which take a variable number of arguments. In C programming, a variadic function will contribute to the flexibility of the program that you are developing.

The declaration of a variadic function starts with the declaration of at least one named variable, and uses an ellipsis as the last parameter, e.g.

int printf(const char* format, ...);

In this problem, you will implement three variadic functions named sum(), min() and max() to calculate sums, minima, maxima of a variable number of arguments. The first argument passed to the variadic function is the count of the number of arguments, which is followed by the arguments themselves.

Input Format

• The first line of the input consists of an integer number_of_test_cases.
• Each test case tests the logic of your code by sending a test implementation of 3, 5 and 10 elements respectively.
• You can test your code against sample/custom input.
• The error log prints the parameters which are passed to the test implementation. It also prints the sum, minimum element and maximum element corresponding to your code.

Constraints

1 ≤ number_of_test_cases ≤ 50

1 ≤ element ≤ 1000000

Output Format

"Correct Answer" is printed corresponding to each correct execution of a test implementation."Wrong Answer" is printed otherwise.
