Programming Challenge 5.13 - The Greatest And The Least Of These

/* The Greatest And The Least Of These - This program uses a loop that lets
   the user enter a series of integers. To signal the end of the series, the
   user has to enter -99. After all numbers have been entered, the program
   displays the largest and the smallest numbers entered. */
