for declaration

is there something wrong in this declaration:
for(j,element=min(x,y);j<max(x,y);j++)??

It looks correct. But I need to ask one thing. Have you initialized j before using for loop? If not, it contains garbage value which will lead to a Wrong answer verdict.

Use

for(j=0,element=min(x,y);j < max(x,y);j++)

or

j=0;
for(j,element=min(x,y);j < max(x,y);j++)

ok thanx!!
