Largest number: 15.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is a java program to determine the largest number out of 15 numbers entered: -

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Largest {

double larger(double x,double y){

if(x>y)

return x;

else

return y;

}

double findLargest(){

double y;

double greatest=0.0;

Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);

for(int i=0;i<15;i++){

System.out.println("Enter number: ");

y=s.nextDouble();

greatest=larger(greatest,y);

}

return greatest;

}

public static void main(String[] args){

Largest l=new Largest();

System.out.println("Largest number: "+l.findLargest());

}

}
