Swift Array Programming Exercises: Find the largest value from the first, last, and middle values in a given  array of integers and length will be at least 1

Sample Solution:

Swift Code:

 func max_three(_ a: [Int]) -> Int {
    guard a.count % 2 == 1 else {
        return 0
    }
    
    let middle_index = a.count / 2
    
    if a.first! > a.last! && a.first! > a[middle_index] {
        return a.first!
    } else if a.last! > a.first! && a.last! > a[middle_index] {
        return a.last!
    } else {
        return a[middle_index]
    }
}

print(max_three([1, 2, 3]))
print(max_three([-1, -5, -7]))
print(max_three([0, 1, 9]))

Sample Output:

3
-1
9

Previous: Write a Swift program to create a new array of length 3 containing the elements from the middle of a given array of integers and length will be at least 3.
Next: Write a Swift program to create a new array, taking first two elements from a given array of integers. If the length of the given array is less than 2 use the single element of the given array.
