what's wrong with this code?? #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int n; int max=0; while (n!=0) { cin>>n; if(n>max) max=n; } cout <<max; return 0; }

It's because n doesn't hold a value when the while loop begins. Set n to a non-zero value, such as 1 or -1, or alternatively you could use a do/while loop rather than a while loop.

if n isnt assigned any value then the compiler automatically assigns a garbage value
