Locating the Largest Value in an Array

Write a program that creates an array which can hold ten values. Fill the array with random numbers from 1 to 100. Display the values in the array on the screen. Then use a linear search to find the largest value in the array, and display that value and its slot number.

Array: 45 87 39 32 93 86 12 44 75 50

The largest value is 93
It is in slot 4

For bonus points, show the largest value visually like so:

Array: 45 87 39 32 93 86 12 44 75 50
                   ^

Or, like this:

Array: 45 87 39 32 [93] 86 12 44 75 50
