Ok this is what i have so far

{
SC.WriteLine(myListArray[i]);
}
SC.WriteLine("\nLab 8 has successfully terminated for Your Name");
Array.Sort(myListArray);
}
}
The teacher says
Array.Sort(myList);
Once the arrary is sorted, the largest value
will be in the last position of the array (subscript value of 11) and
the smallest element will be in the first position (subscript value of
0).
Here is how you can print the largest element:
SC.WriteLine("largest value entered is{0}", myList[11]);
Here is how you can print the smallest element:
SC.WriteLine("smallest value entered is{0}", myList[0]);
Did i do this right?

Yeah. That's the way it goes sometimes with online courses. Remember, one of the most important things about programming is understanding the problem. After that, you can usually find the correct way to implement a usable solution. Some good resources are your text book, Google, or forums such as this. By the way, are you using an IDE such as Visual Studio to code and debug these labs?

Jenni, i'm sorry, but I just got your reply to the post before this one. Since I now know the criteria, the code that you need is as follows. Please make sure that you understand it, so you can learn it. If you have any quesitons, ask. Don't forget to accept this answer. Take care.
using
System;using
SC = System.Console;public
class NLastLab8{
//Main Method public static void Main(){
int[] myListArray = new int[12];myListArray[0] = myListArray[1] = 1;
SC.WriteLine("Lab 8 – Your Name\n"); for (int x = 0; x < 12; ++x){
SC.Write("Please enter a value for element {0} -->\t", x);myListArray[x] =
Convert.ToInt32(SC.ReadLine());}
SC.WriteLine("\n\nThe last value entered was: " + myListArray[11]); for (int i = 0; i < myListArray.Length; i++){
SC.WriteLine(myListArray[i]);}
Array.Sort(myListArray); SC.WriteLine("The smallest value entered was: {0} -->", myListArray[0]); SC.WriteLine("The largest value entered was: {0} -->", myListArray[11]); SC.WriteLine("\nLab 8 has successfully terminated for Your Name"); SC.ReadKey(); Array.Sort(myListArray);}
}

Ok Jenni you have a couple of issues with your output statements. any time that you want a line to be printed to the console, you must use the Console.WriteLine() method. Also, to keep the console from disappearing immediately after opening, you must use the Console.ReadKey() methlod. The corrected code is below. Don't forget to accept this answer if it helps.
using
System;using
SC = System.Console;public
class NLastLab8{
//Main Method public static void Main(){
int[] myListArray = new int[12];myListArray[0] = myListArray[1] = 1;
SC.WriteLine("Lab 8 – Your Name\n"); for (int x = 0; x < 12; ++x){
SC.Write("Please enter a value for element {0} -->\t", x);myListArray[x] =
Convert.ToInt32(SC.ReadLine());}
SC.WriteLine("\n\nThe last value entered was: " + myListArray[myListArray.Length - 1]);
Array.Sort(myListArray);
SC.WriteLine("The smallest value entered was: {0} -->", myListArray[0]); for (int i = myListArray.Length - 1; i >= 0; i--){
SC.WriteLine(myListArray[i]);}
SC.WriteLine("The largest value entered was: {0} -->", myListArray[11]); for (int i = 0; i < myListArray.Length; i++){
SC.WriteLine(myListArray[i]);}
SC.WriteLine("\nLab 8 has successfully terminated for Your Name"); SC.ReadKey();
Array.Sort(myListArray);}
}
