Problem Statement

Write a C++ program using `std::min_element` and `std::max_element` to find minimum and maximum values in a vector.

Input Format

First line: N. Second line: N space-separated integers.

Output Format

Print minimum and maximum values separated by a space.

Constraints

1 <= N <= 1000

Sample Input

5
30 10 50 20 40

Sample Output

10 50

Explanation

Returns iterators pointing to the smallest and largest elements in a range.

Starter Code

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>

int main() {
    int n;
    if (std::cin >> n) {
        std::vector<int> vec(n);
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) std::cin >> vec[i];
        
        // Write your min_element and max_element logic here

    }
    return 0;
}
