"I'm currently attempting to create this program to find the largest number. I'm using Visual Logic.

At this moment I have declared the needed variables and started initialize() with an INPUT to find enter the amount of numbers the user wants. Then a for loop that allows the user to enter their numbers. But I'm currently having issue with the upper bound. Let's say I type in 6 as the amount of numbers I want to enter, then I proceed to enter my numbers but my upper bound is 7. How do I fix this??? Thanks!"


I've figured out the problem but now I'm trying to make a for loop with if statement to allow the program to display the largest number. Any suggestions?

So now you don't know how to actually build the logic to display the largest number? Is it the displaying part that you're confused about or about finding the largest number.
If it is finding the largest, acccept the values into an array. Make a new variable to store the max number and set it's default value similar to the first value entered into the array. Compare each value with one another using a for loop and each time, update the max number variable with the highest of the two. While the loop has ended, it should hopefully hold the largest number. Then simply display it.
