            obj.printarray();
            Console.WriteLine("Largest Element : {0}", obj.max());
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
Program Explanation

In this C# program, we are creating the object variable ‘obj’ for ‘arrsampl’ class. The printarray() method is used to enter the coefficient element values of the array using a[i,j] variable. The max() method is used to find the smallest element in a matrix.

For loop is used to check each element values in the array by using if else condition statement. Check the value of ‘big’ variable is less than the value of x[i,j] variable. If the condition is true, then iterate the statement and assign the value of the x[i,j] variable to big variable. Print the largest element in a matrix.

Runtime Test Cases
 
Elements in the Given Matrix :
12 21 63
40 15 6
Largest Element : 63
