C Programming – HackerRank Solution | N-M Elements sorting |

(HackerRank) Write a Modular C Programming code to solve N-M Elements sorting, Your task is to calculate the difference between the maximum sum and minimum sum of N-M elements

Coders here is a simple task for you, you have given an array of size N and an integer M.
Your task is to calculate the difference between the maximum sum and minimum sum of N-M elements of the given array.

Constraints:
1<=t<=10
1<=n<=1000
1<=a[i]<=1000

Input:
First line contains an integer T denoting the number of testcases.
First line of every testcase contains two integer N and M.
Next line contains N space separated integers denoting the elements of array
Output:
For every test case print your answer in new line

Sample Input

1

5 1

1 2 3 4 5

Sample Output

4

 

Explanation

M is 1 and N is 5 so you have to calculate maximum and minimum sum using (5-1 =) 4 elements.
Maximum sum using the 4 elements would be (2+3+4+5=)14.
Minimum sum using the 4 elements would be (1+2+3+4=)10.
Difference will be 14-10=4.

CODE:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<math.h>
void sort(int a[1000],int n)
{

    int temp;

    for(int i=0;i<n-1;i++){
        for(int j=0;j<n-i-1;j++) { if(a[j]>a[j+1]){
                temp=a[j];
                a[j]=a[j+1];
                a[j+1]=temp;

        }
        }
    }
}

main()
{
    int t,n,m,a[1000],i;
    scanf("%d",&t);
   while(t--)
   {
       scanf("%d %d",&n,&m);
       for(i=0;i<n;i++)
       {
           scanf("%d",&a[i]);
       }
       sort(a,n);
   }

   int v,min=0,max=0;
   v=n-m;

   for(i=0;i<v;i++)
   {
       min=min+a[i];
   }

   for(i=n-v;i<n;i++)
   {
       max=max+a[i];
   }

   printf("%d",max-min);

}
