Find Max from List Box Tutorial Using a While Loop in Visual Basic - VB.Net Algorithm

[@johnsonjeremiah3]

Thanks Ken. I am studying for a Intro to VB exam and your videos are a great supplement to my professor, who is great but difficult to understand sometimes.

[@KenSwartwout]

Thanks for the feedback! A For/Next loop is just a different syntax - it would be less lines of code. You just have to familiarize yourself with the For/Next syntax. Essentially, the counter is declared and incremented on the same line as the For statement. Your condition will be the same - you will compare the counter with the list box size. My video on For/Next should help - sorry I can't post a link.

The solution would be similar to this example. The difference would be that you calculate a running total as opposed to a running maximum. You would iterate through the list box in the same fashion and examine each item but replace comparisons with addition. Good luck!

Thank you very much Ken. Your explanation of your logic was very helpful. It helped me a lot. Thank you very much! I just don't know how you would do it in a fewer lines (like you mentioned in the video) than the example you used here using For/Next loop.

I just came here to say thank you so much I have pass my exam easily and there was a question similar to this one so it was really easy to me , it really was something different which is how to check the max in 4 listbox but I have made one and put it in a function and just copying and changing the listbox name and it's work perfectly :D thank you so much

can you show how we could find the number of grades above the average

[@bmanning1989]

I am trying to add numbers to a list box and sort them min and max. Can you help me?

[@RickyFuto]

How can I sum all items in a listbox using While Loop? I was able to do it with the For Each method but I am asked to do it using While loop.

[@notsonathan]

dude i have a problem , the code is correct, but whenever i click the buttom max.. It doesn't recognize the last number i put in the list.

[@ghostxshot]

5 years later, where he said add the -1, don't do that.

[@notsonathan]

Can you also put the code for finding the average? Thanks :)

[@KenSwartwout]

You are welcome.

I am learning console apps, Could you do one that takes 1 penny the first day 2 pennies the second day 4 pennies the third day 8 on the fourth and so on, but have to ask the user to input the number of days and the final amount has to be in dollars and cents format...... if you could do that it would be awesome, Thank you
