// TestCode.java
public class TestCode {
    public static int maxElement(int[] A, int high, int low) {
        if(high==low){
            return A[high];
        }
        else{
            int max = maxElement(A,high+1,low);
            if(max < A[high]){
                return A[high];
            }
            else{
                return max;
            }
        }
    }

    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        int [] numbers = {2,12,1999,99,100,4,7,300};
        System.out.println(maxElement(numbers,0,numbers.length-1));
    }
}
