Consider the problem of finding the largest element in a list of n elements. what will be the basic operation of an algorithm to solve this problem?

assignment

addition

looping

comparesn

Comparison.

Explanation:

When we have to find a largest in a list of n elements.First we have to iterate over the list so we can access all the elements of the list in one go.Then to find the largest element in the list we have to initialize a variable outside the loop with the minimum value possible and in the loop compare each element with this value,if the element is greater than the variable assign the element to the variable.Then the loop will find the largest element and it will be the variable.
