/*This C Program finds second largest & smallest elements in an array. The program sorts the array in an descending order. Then it finds the second largest and smallest element in an array and also find the average of an array element. Later it checks if the resultant average number is present in a given array. If found, display appropriate message.*/
/*
* C program to accept a list of data items and find the second largest
* and smallest elements in it. Compute the average of both and search
* for the average value if it is present in the array.
* Display appropriate message on successful search.
