C Program to Find Majority Element in a Sorted Array

This C Program checks if a given integer X appears more than N/2 times in a sorted array of N integers.

Here is source code of the C Program to find if a given integer X appears more than N/2 times in a sorted array of N integers. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

$ cc pgm95.c
$ a.out
The given no 15 appears more than 3 times in array[]
