C code to find largest and smallest number in an array

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
  int a[50],size,i,big,small;
  printf("\nEnter the size of the array: ");
  scanf("%d",&size);
  printf("\nEnter %d elements in to the array: ", size);
  for(i=0;i<size;i++)
      scanf("%d",&a[i]);
  big=a[0];
  for(i=1;i<size;i++)
{
      if(big<a[i])
           big=a[i];
  }
  printf("Largest element: %d",big);
 
  small=a[0];
  for(i=1;i<size;i++)
{
      if(small>a[i])
           small=a[i];
  }
  printf("Smallest element: %d",small);
  getch();
}
Sample Output:
Enter the size of the array: 4
Enter 4 elements in to the array: 2 7 8 1
Largest element: 8
Smallest element: 1
